I graduated with Distinction from University College London, where I studied for a Master’s in Comparative Literature. My research focused on Anglo-American Modernism and Philosophy of Language, but I regularly engage with all types of text. Writing burrows its way into every aspect of my life – I read, edit, translate, write poetry, review new books, and spend about half of my day trying to find new engaging ways to write boring emails. I think the study of language and literary interpretation is wonderful for different reasons. In a way, it is a superpower – and when used responsibly, it brings people together by articulating their lives and struggles in a relatable and enlightening way. How one tells a story reflects what they find important. Learning to interpret a story allows us to discover *how* this happens, and how to *make it *happen.
