It was my great pleasure to participate on April 25 in the international conference The Global Novel: Material Objects and Forms, the closing event for the ERC project The Global Novel, led by Neus Rotger, with my paper “Care, Nature, and Dystopia: Affective Ecocriticism of Tawada Yōko’s Kentōshi and Fernanda Trías’ Mugre Rosa“.
It was a wonderful event filled with very interesting presentations and a lively discussion on the limits and challenges for current debates surrounding what we call global literature.
