Please join us for a conversation with Golnaz Hashemzadeh Bonde, Iranian-born, Swedish-trained economist and author of What We Owe, a novel that explores the impact of Iran's Islamic revolution on a family of emigrants and exiles over three generations. Her novel was originally published in Sweden as Det var vi. Bonde will be joined by Wright State University faculty Alpana Sharma, English, Awad Halabi, Religion and History, and Jeannette Horwitz, English/LEAP to discuss the novel through the lenses of post-colonial literature, Islamic culture in exile, and contemporary Swedish culture and literature, among other topics and themes.
