Bònn ane, bonne année, happy new year! We are delighted to kick things off with a roundtable with Tegan Zimmerman on her monograph, Matria Redux. Noting that psychoanalysis tends to ignore racial politics and that postcolonial studies do not systematically account for gender, Zimmerman brings these analytics in conversation and creates a new conceptual apparatus that enables radically fresh readings of mother-daughter relationships in recent Caribbean literatures. The event will be held in English, via Zoom. Register below for the link.
Zimmerman is also the co-editor, with Odile Ferly, of Chronotropics: Caribbean Women Writing Spacetime, just out with Palgrave McMillan.
