Oxford Crossings Postgraduate Conference - Keynote - Clare Azzopardi

Award-wining writer Clare Azzopardi shares extracts from Maltese literature, including her own short story collection The Names They Left, as a way to reflect on gender, the processes and politics that go into the construction of a literary canon and drawing its borders. The handout of poems read during the talk, along with their English translations, can be found here.
