Between Worl(d)s

Selected poems by May Sarton, Rose Ausländer[1],

Grace Nichols, Imtiaz Dharker

Moving from one culture to another, changing one’s language, has been described as giving up part of oneself.

At any rate, standing alone in the world in some way, is now an experience more people have to deal with at some point in their lives, in a globalised world. Women bring their own strengths and anxieties to it.

How did these different authors, writing as mature women in the second half of the 20^th century, make home away from home, even create a new identity for themselves, under diverse circumstances?

Is it possible to get into their shoes, respectively, and hear the answer speaking from there?

Come and find out -!

“Extremely high standard, moving, funny…” (from review by Aberystwyth Arts Centre, April 2003)
