Abstract
Positioning reading as a site of meaning negotiation, this article provides a detailed account of one multilingual, transnational student’s literacy practices for personal, academic, and disciplinary purposes across spaces. Drawing on the notion of disconnect, I examine the tensions and fissures that disrupt the flow of literacies across spaces.
