19 - Identity (or Are the Literary Voices of Exophonic Writers Compromised by Cultural Expectations?)
Description
Welcome, exophonic friends!
It's almost impossible to talk about exophony without talking about Identity, since it's such a fundamental pillar for this practice.
Matters of Identity emerge during the phase of choosing to become an exophonic writer as well as during the phase after one has already been writing in a second language for a while (well, duh, matters of identity govern almost everything we do, don't they?)
In this episode, I'm posing a lot of questions about the expectations surrounding identity and literary voice of exophonic writers and even though they are questions I don't necessarily know the answer to, I think they are important questions to start asking.
