Abstract
Khal Torabully (b. 1956, Mauritius) is a
poet, essayist, film director, and
semiologist who has authored some
twenty-five books. He has taken the
derogatory term "coolie," and has re-envisioned,
re-imagined, and re-defined
it to encompass the richness of
transcultural exchanges (geographical,
biological, and cultural) that enrich the
world.
Nancy Naomi Carlson, his translator,
will also be part of the event.
