Class Notes:
Women Writing About War This course will focus on how we write about wars. In a world where there are more and more refugees all the time, in a state that is home to more refugees per capita than any other in the nation, we must contend with one of the primary sources of displacement. We will read literary nonfiction books written about wars from diverse authors, some refugees, others not. We will engage with how these authors portray war and its aftermath, engage with the big questions of who fights, who dies, who sacrifices. Are there victors in the carnage of humanity? *Of note: this class is taught by a refugee writer.
