The
Idea of Return: Samir El-Youssef in conversation with Eva Hoffman
The
20th century created more refugees than any other century - people
for whom return to their homeland was either impossible or
undesirable. What happens to the individual in exile - to their
sense of identity, language and self? If the idea of return can ever
be contemplated, what does such an idea mean and what are its
implications? Samir El-Youssef, author of The Illusion of
Return, will explore questions of exile, identity and return in
conversation with Eva Hoffman, author of Lost in
Translation, Shtetl, After Such Knowledge
and Exit into History.
