Estoy invitada a la feria de Sahrjáh. Nos recibieron con un paseo al desierto, donde vi caer el sol, conversando con colegas de distintos lugares del mundo. Tanto para leer! Danzas folklóricas y una cena fantástica a la luz de la luna. Hoy comienzan mis actividades.

How writers are inspired to write about the history of their country.
National identity has become a hotbed of social debate. What is national identity? Is it important? Are we seeing a re-emergence in the desire for such identity? Writers are no exception to these questions. Panellists will explain how this drives them to create stories about national identity.
