Disturbing the Comfortable; Comforting the Disturbed

Dr Heather Taylor Johnson

How does writing both comfort and disturb us? Coetzee Centre Writer in Residence, Heather Taylor Johnson, will examine this question in a thought-provoking masterclass, drawing on her own writing of chronic illness, as well as the works of other writers, to explore how we can grow communities of caring through fictional empathy. 7th May, Room 618, Napier Building.
