So I finally got to watch this. What can I say? It was nourishing and moving all at once, because I heard thought processes described that I go through, and it was immensely comforting. Thank you. Dos gigantes de la literatura.

Loved this most profound and needed conversation, which I will spread far and wide to aspiring writers who are postcolonial subjects living in different states of benign militarism, covert dictatorship and despotism that marks our era. Thank you Junot Diaz and Keran Desai.

Miami, jan 30 2026…Such a wonderful talk!!!!! A little paradise in the middle of all the cruelty that is surrounding us. A pleasure to hear you both and get to know about your countries and your experience in the USA. AI will not save us, ART will do.
