This book is a fascinating linguistic, pragmatic, and ethnographic exploration of multilingualism and additional language (AL) learning among refugees relocated to Norway. Particularly compelling are its insights into why AL learning can be difficult for multilinguals living in the AL environment and receiving regular language instruction, even when the AL is similar to languages they already know. * Scott Jarvis, University of Utah, USA * This book presents a fascinating and multi-perspectival take on language learning triggered by forced migration, surely one of the most pressing and under-addressed issues in language education at the present time. Its focus on how this plays out for multilingual learners and its location in a Nordic country adds to its distinctiveness. * Mike Baynham, University of Leeds, UK * With this important volume Steien and Monsen initiate a welcome reflection on the specific language learning needs of forced migrants. Contributors throw light on a variety of themes: from the different learning contexts of migrants to the effects of official policies, from emic perspectives on learning to language awareness. These much-needed reflections provide a significant addition to the literature on language, education and migration. * Anna De Fina, Georgetown University, USA *
