Blogging at WWB

I’ve been busier than usual at the Words Without Borders blog lately. I posted twice about John Updike and African literature…

Updike on Africa
Updike on Africa, Part II

And I took Friday off and spent a good chunk of my three-day weekend covering the PEN World Voices Festival. Three of my posts have appeared already…

The Moth Revolution: Stories of Change
Mark Z. Danielewski and Rick Moody
Is Nonfiction Literature?

The last one, on Nawal El Saadawi, should appear soon. (Here it is now.) It might ruffle a few feathers. (I admire El Saadawi’s courage and her work on behalf of human rights, but I’m not a fan of her fiction.)
