DESCRIPTION: Writing duo Saskya Jain and Christopher Kloeble take us to Ind
 ia and talk about how they tell the country's multilingual\, multicultural 
 and multi-religious history through stories. In “Geeta Rahman at Championsh
 ip Point” (2021) by Saskya Jain\, a young half-orphan mourns the loss of he
 r mother as she rises to badminton stardom in the turbulent political clima
 te of India in the early 1990s. Christopher Kloeble's “The Museum of the Wo
 rld” (2021\; English 2022) is set in the mid-19th century and tells the sto
 ry of a teenage orphan who leaves colonial Bombay to translate for the Germ
 an (Bavarian) explorers Hermann\, Adolph and Robert Schlagintweit - but abo
 ve all to achieve a new consciousness.   The discussion (in English) follow
 ing the reading will focus on the advantages of young protagonists and the 
 challenges of narrating colonial pasts across borders and\, of course\, res
 pond to questions from the audience.   The event is being organized in coop
 eration with Dartmouth College.
