Writing in the Absence of History

Wednesday 28 October / 19.00 p.m. / Online

 

Jordy Rosenberg’s Confessions of the Fox and Shola von Reinhold’s Lote step into the realm of archival speculation, giving voice to those erased – due to their gender, race or sexuality – from the writing of history. In conversation with TWR contributing editor Skye Arundhati Thomas, the authors will discuss craft, form, and what’s at stake in imagining the lives whose material traces have been lost.

 

Register at Eventbrite. A Zoom link will be emailed to attendees on the evening of the event.

 

Tickets are free or pay-what-you-want: restrictions on in-person events due to COVID-19 has meant The White Review has lost a significant income stream this year. We traditionally sell copies of the magazine, and drinks, at live events, while keeping tickets free. As a registered charity and small arts organisation, we are now offering both free and pay-what-you-want tickets to our online events, in the hope that our supporters will donate a small amount. This goes directly back into the organisation, into the print magazine, free online content, and future events.
