What does it mean to live in exile?

On the next Your Call, we'll have a conversation with novelist, playwright, and human rights activist Ariel Dorfman, about his memoir, Feeding on Dreams: Confessions of an Unrepentant Exile. Dorfman was forced to flee for his life during the Chilean military coup in 1973. Now he reflects on the history of politics in Latin America and his own life--with the conclusion that "we are all exiles." So what does that mean? Join us live at 10 or send us an email at feedback@yourcallradio.org. What can exiles teach us about our common humanity? It's Your Call with Shirin Sadeghi, and you.

Guests:
Ariel Dorfman, novelist, playwright, and human rights activist who is out with a new memoir, Feeding on Dreams: Confessions of an Unrepentant Exile
