Canberra Writers Festival

Migration stories of people leaving their homelands can be some of the most moving you’ll ever read – and this is the case for the books written by Durkhanai Ayubi, Majeda Awawdeh and Yirga Gelaw Woldeyes. Fleeing oppression, reclaiming identity and finding new forms of belonging – these are challenges that go to the heart of the human story. Our panel will share their stories with Genevieve Jacobs.
