Lost In Translation

Exile is translation, emigration is translation, you wake up reinterpreted in a strange language, a context of signifiers that don't mean what they say. The translation often starts early. For me it started almost before I could speak; I've emigrated four times in my life, twice as a kid, twice as an adult.
