Abstract

In this interview, Kim Echlin discusses Canadian writers' interest in writing about other cultures, which requires research and an empathic imagination as well as the responsibility to people who cannot tell their own stories of trauma. She addresses primarily her process of writing "The Disappeared," her novel about Cambodia, in which the central character tests the limits of empathy and witnessing. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
