Ersi Sotiropoulos

Inspired by Emily Dickinson's well-known verse calling for a sideways reflection upon truth, Liana Sakelliou discusses issues of gender identity with four renowned Greek women writers who have been translated and published recently in the United States: Zyranna Zateli, Maria Mitsora, Amanda Michalopoulou and Ersi Sotiropoulos.

Novel Encounters, a festival celebrating Greek and Irish fiction, is being hosted by the Durrell Library of Corfu in association with the Ionian University's Department of Foreign Languages, Translation and Interpreting from October 18-20.
