An Evening (in English) with the Mexican writer, Yuri Herrera
LTU
If you fancy a conversation (with readings, Q&A and more) about literature, language, myths, crossings, translations, departures and arrivals, violence, humour, walls and other obstacles... then join Yuri Herrera, Lilit Thwaites, Barry Carr and Diana Palaversich on
Friday March 10, 6-8.30pm
at
La Trobe University Franklin St (city) campus,
215 Franklin St, Room 1.04
Free event; books available for purchase at 5.30pm
YURI HERRERA does not simply write about the border between Mexico and the United States and those who cross it, he explores the crossings and translations people make in their minds and language as they move from one country to another - especially when there’s no going back.
Born in Actopan, Mexico, in 1970, Herrera studied Politics in Mexico, Creative Writing in El Paso and took his PhD in literature at Berkeley.
