For the Love of Grandmothers with Melissa Mogollon
Manage episode 433926403 series 2856903
This week on Black & Published, Nikesha speaks with Melissa Mogollon, author of the novel, OYE. A graduate of the Iowa Writers’ Workshop, Melissa is originally from Colombia and was raised in Florida. She now teaches at a boarding school in Rhode Island, where she lives with her partner and dog.
In our conversation, Melissa explains the feedback she received for her experimental form and why she refused to change it. Plus, how an obsession with beauty is really a fight for autonomy and power. And, how writing the novel gave Melissa a way to hang out with her grandmother for years after she passed.
