    Marcia Lynx Qualey in conversation with Ramy Al-Asheq. The poet, editor and literary curator discusses the dynamics of the German cultural scene and the position of new arrivals who write in another language, and their need to be part of a community. His activities aim at bringing together Arab authors living in Germany with German writers of the same generation, creating spaces for exchange and mutual translation which broadens the scope and allows readers to expand one’s horizons beyond the widely translated few and the classics to discover new voices.

    New voices For Europe: My advice is: don't accept the label of a 'refugee writer'

    Marcia Lynx Qualey in conversation with Ghayath Almadhoun. The Palestinian-Syrian poet Ghayath Almadhoun has been living in Sweden since he sought asylum when he was invited to a festival there in 2008. He decided never to do anything other than be a poet, and fourteen years later he has managed to keep his word. Poetry is his only occupation, and he has more recently settled in Berlin, thanks to the DAAD artists residency. His advice to writers arriving from conflict zones is not to fall into the ‘refugee trap’ set up by well-meaning people, not to take the ‘short route’ by accepting a refugee identity rather than that of a writer. New Voices for Europe a podcast and interview series from Literature Across Frontiers.
