Peterson Hall 1106

Section Information for Fall 2021

This course is designed for students who want to read some of the most interesting international writers and translators working today. The course will feature writing from across the globe in a diverse set of forms (fiction, poetry, essay) and languages. My hope is to have students interact with all the writers or translators we are reading, either in person or via Zoom. All are welcome, but this course is focused on the art of international creative writing and the context in which these works were created. As such, it is particularly suitable for aspiring writers and storytellers who want to learn from international creative writers and their translators.
