520    Based on the structured analysis of selected North 
       American novels, this work examines global cities as a 
       literary phenomenon ("DiverCity"). By analyzing Dionne 
       Brand's Toronto, "What We All Long For" (2005), Chang-rae 
       Lee's New York, "Native Speaker" (1995), and Karen Tei 
       Yamashita's Los Angeles, "Tropic of Orange" (1997), 
       Melanie U. Pooch provides the connecting link for 
       exploring the triad of globalization and its effects, 
       global cities as cultural nodal points, and cultural 
       diversity in a globalizing age as a literary phenomenon. 
       Thus, she contributes to a global, interdisciplinary, and 
       multi-perspectival understanding of literature, culture, 
       and society.
