Inspired by Lila Abu-Lughod’s (2018) proposal of “writing against culture”, I outline a kind of narrative strategy, in a textual effort to demonstrate how particular stories allow us to perceive how broader processes, such as inequality and hunger, manifest themselves in people's daily lives, bodies and words |
