There's something profoundly intimate about reading literature written by women. It's more than just consuming words on a page; it's a paper trail of recognition, of seeing my own experiences reflected in the narratives woven by female writers.
Recently I've started hosting themed dinners called Dialogue at the Table. We gather with a small group of people to discuss one subject. Sharing thoughts and philosophies on a matter that every single person at the table has a deep-felt connection with. Our shared interest on the subject is the glue that brings the guests from all walks of life together. More editions of Dialogue at the Table on friendships, creativity, literature, illness, the body and feminism coming soon.
I wrote about the privilege of modern self care before, but never as articulate as Zadie Smith put it in an interview (2018) with Arnon Grunberg. She talks about the privilege of focusing on your existential identity while others still have to make room for their political identity. In other words, there is no room to question the existential: "Who am I? What will my place be in this world?" If you are still making the world around you aware that the physical you, the political you is just as valuable and deserves the same autonomous reality that they know for themselves.
