“Broken English”: How Writers Bend, Break and Mend LanguageDrawing on Toni Morrison’s powerful assertion that oppressive language is violence and a limit to knowledge, investigate how the English language, or monolingualism itself, has the capacity to violate, restrict, demonise, bamboozle, divide, silence and erase diverse voices and experiences. Join Faisal Mohyuddin in taking a step further to critically examine how writers actively resist this power by bending, breaking and mending the language. Through the works of groundbreaking writers like Diana Khoi Nguyen, Rajiv Mohabir, and Layli Long Soldier and others, unpack how “broken English” can be a force for liberation and recognition, challenging linguistic constraints, embracing multilingualism and translingualism, and cultivating the innovative spirit of our own writing. |
