10 Elena Cardona

F'dan l-episodju niltaqgħu ma' Elena Cardona, il-poeta li bl-ewwel ktieb tagħha "Meta Tlaqt lil Adam" diġà qed tagħmel ħoss u hija finalista għall-premju nazzjonali tal-ktieb ta' din is-sena.

Cardona tkellimna dwar l-esperjenza tagħha bħala mara Għawdxija u xi tfisser li "tinqata' minn Adam" f'soċjetà li għadha timponi l-ideat patrijarkali dwar in-nisa. Tkellimna dwar l-emarġinati fil-poeżija tagħha, u x-xogħlijiet ġodda li qed taħdem fuqhom fil-kitba tan-novelli.

In this episode we meet Elena Cardona, the poet whose first book "Meta Tlaqt lil Adam" (When I left Adam) has been already been generating reactions and reviews. It is also a finalist for this year's national book prize.

Cardona speaks about her experience as a Gozitan woman and what it means "to leave Adam" in a society that still imposes rigid patriarchal ideas on women. She speaks of the marginalised in her poetry, and new short stories she is working on.

Antenni Suspettużi is PEN Malta's weekly podcast with contemporary authors. Out every Tuesday.
