- A special event, held at the University of Kent on Thursday 22 November 2018 and hosted by the School of English, was dedicated to the work of Abdulrazak Gurnah: one of the most important contemporary postcolonial novelists writing in Britain today.
The evening presented a unique opportunity to examine Gurnah’s oeuvre as well as to discuss it with him in person, and comprised a keynote lecture by Giles Foden on Abdulrazak Gurnah’s novelistic project and its context, and an interview (by Razia Iqbal) about his work and life in Britain and Zanzibar.
Such a treasure to the world. What a beautiful human being.
Proudly to be Zanzibari ❤,
Kudos to my fellow Zanzibari Mr. Gurnar.
Proud of Mr. Gurnah and remember his play called Jambazi at Lumumba College.1967?
I am currently reading Paradise by Gurnah. He writes beautifully, his narration captures one's entire attention, and the pace of the story develops moderately. It was surprising to see the reference to kyrgyz (p.105). I am originally from Kyrgyzstan.
Its really a very nice Book
Congrats to Gurnah
CONGRATULATION MR. GURNAH
Nice
How can I reach Professor Gurnah. I am working on a book on him. Besides, I am doing my PhD on Mr. Gurnah's fictional oeuvre. Is it possible to meet him in person in Kent or anywhere else in Britain? If yes, how? Does he respond to e-mails?
