current ideas under construction

These are the ideas I'm mulling over for current articles. If you have thoughts, please message me.

-- the connections between exile writers, mother, and homeland and how those relationships are articulated in their litereature.

-- Camus and his use of nostalgia (and especially return) to articulate identity

-- Francophone women and their articulation of home (again the mother comes into this discourse quite heavily).

-- Writing the wounds of Algeria, which is on the underside of nostalgia writing, or what is covered up by the nostalgia. (This article is in progress and the abstract accepted for publication).
