SUMMARY:'The Re in Refuge' with Author Adrianne Kalfopoulou
DESCRIPTION:Adrianne Kalfopoulou will read from and discuss The re in refuge\, a linked essay collection that examines refuge in its many forms: emotional\, political\, cultural\, and geographic. Written alongside the unfolding European refugee crisis\, the book moves between personal narrative\, history\, and social critique\, attending closely to questions of belonging\, exile\, and ethical responsibility. The event will feature a reading\, a short talk\, and a moderated Q&A. Kalfopoulou will also be signing books directly after the program. \nAdrianne Kalfopoulou is the author of three poetry collections\, most recently A History of Too Much\, and three prose collections including On the Gaze: Dubai and Its New Cosmopolitanisms. Her work has appeared in World Literature Today\, The Harvard Review online\, Hotel Amerika\, and Futures: Poetry of the Greek Crisis\, among others. Her essays in The re in refuge were written over a decade and are informed by her lived experience in Athens during the European refugee crisis. She lives in Athens\, Greece. \nPresented by the English and Communication Studies and History of Art departments with support from the Office of International Programs and School of Liberal Arts and Sciences.  \nFor more information and teaching materials\, email Amy_Lemmonbowen@fitnyc.edu and Alexander_Nagel@fitnyc.edu. \nThis event is for the FIT community only.
