SUMMARY:BILA HUDOOD: These Literary Truths
DESCRIPTION:With the innovative projects like the Kayfa Ta (“How To”) series and a number of poets turning to long-form prose\, there has been a new wave of Arabic literary nonfiction that weaves together deeply intimate family histories with insights into photography\, the nature of silence and sleep\, patriarchy\, and how familial histories twine together with broader political forces. This panel\, “These Literary Truths\,” will be moderated by writer and editor Rima Rantisi\, co-founder of Rusted Radishes magazine in Beirut. She will be joined by writer Amr Ezzat (Room 304 or How I Hid from My Dear Father for 35 Years\, How To Remember Your Dreams)\, poet\, novelist\, and nonfiction writer Dunya Mikhail (The Beekeeper of Sinjar)\, and one of the co-founders of the Kayfa Ta project\, artist and curator Maha Maamoun. \nThere is no need to register. \nYou can simply show up at the YouTube page to join.

SUMMARY:BILA HUDOOD: The Taste of Letters
DESCRIPTION:In 2019\, a two-month food-writing workshop called “The Taste of Letters” (طعم الحروف) took place at the Contemporary Image Collective in Cairo as part of Botoun (a series of workshops\, film screenings\, and an exhibition that engaged with the politics of food). “The Taste of Letters” became the title of a collection of texts that emerged from the workshop\, and they appeared in English translation as part of the Summer 2021 issue of ArabLit Quarterly\, guest-edited by Nour Kamel. In this panel\, moderated by Nour Kamel\, writers reflect on the various tastes that make up food writing in and through Arabic. Kamel is joined by writer\, researcher\, and filmmaker Salma Serry; the genre-spanning author of Food for Copts (2017) Charles Akl; and Mariam Boctor a member of Botoun’s curatorial team who helped facilitate “The Taste of Letters” workshop and translated some of its texts into English. \nSupported in part by ArabLit Quarterly magazine\, in honor of its summer issue\, THE KITCHEN. \nThere is no need to register. \nYou can simply show up at the YouTube page to join. However\, if you would like a reminder\, you can get one via this Facebook event page or EventBrite.

SUMMARY:BILA HUDOOD: Arabic Literature in Berlin
DESCRIPTION:This panel shines a spotlight on Berlin as a centre of Arabic-language literary production. Prose writer Haytham El-Wardany\, playwright Liwaa Yazji\, and Arabic-German translator Sandra Hetzl will reflect on the recent upsurge of Arabic writing taking place in the city and discuss themes and styles that emerge in this body of work\, and the inspiration they find for their own practice. We will discuss the infrastructure that supports this creativity\, and ask whether Berlin is doing enough to support its non-German writers. We’ll also examine some of the challenges of being an Arab writer in Berlin. Panelists will read short extracts from recent work they’ve written in or about Berlin. Moderated by Katharine Halls.\n\nThis panel is in association with Khan Aljanub\, Berlin’s leading Arabic bookshop.\n\n\n\nThere is no need to register.\n\n \n\nYou can simply show up at the YouTube page to join.
