I don't get what this sentence means to say.
With the new spaces created by immigration, the enforced alienation from ‘normal’ ties of human socializing
brings the memory of what has been left behind to the fore as the new spaces of existence acquire relevance in contrast to what one knows.

It is gibberish but I think the author is trying to say that the immigrant is isolated from the new community and remembers the old life as he/she is learning to live in the new place and its differences from the former life.
thanks a lot!
