"Dislocation and Unbelonging - Reading and Sharing"

Hong Kong author Lee Chi-leung (李智良) has long been concerned with a sense of “unbelonging” and uprootedness for people who are alienated by the late capitalist culture and its precarious ways of life - they can be “migrants” away from home or “citizens” who feel life is elsewhere. Lee has written short stories about their sorrows and struggles living in a city like Hong Kong, which faces a turn to nativism in recent years. He will read some of these works, and shows photographs he has taken in Hong Kong and elsewhere, bringing in discussion on the sense of dislocation facing this increasingly flattened, yet alienated world. Conducted in English only.
