Author Somaiya Daud returns and discusses erasure in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, how the comic Monstress gets it right, and about representation and perspective in writing characters and story lines.

About Somaiya:

Somaiya lives, works, and writes from Seattle, Washington. In 2018 her debut novel, Mirage, was released in the United States with Flatiron Books and the United Kingdom with Hodder & Stoughton. It was hailed as “poetically written”, “immersive and captivating” and “beautiful and necessary” by The School Library Journal, Booklist and Entertainment Weekly. Mirage has been shortlisted for the Children’s Africana Book Award and the Arab American Book Award. In 2020 Somaiya received her PhD in English Literature studies with a focus on world literature and nineteenth-century orientalism.
