Speakers): Jordi Soler

Jordi Soler is the author of a narrative saga in three volumes (Los Rojos
de Ultramar, La última hora del último día, and La fiesta del Oso)
inspired by the expulsion of his family from Spain and subsequent exile in
Mexico in the aftermath of the Spanish Civil War. In these novels, Soler
illustrates the pervasive and ongoing effect of the war, which continues to
have a significant impact four generations later. In his lecture, Jordi
Soler will address issues around the strangeness of exile.
