In immigrant experience short stories, family is often a central theme. Families are either a source of support or a cause of conflict during the immigration process.

Immigrants try to find a sense of belonging in their new communities. In 'Exit West', the refugees are constantly looking for a place where they can belong. And the theme of loss is common too. They may lose their old way of life, friends, or a sense of security when they move to a new place.
