Notes : "Queens in Exile is about telling better stories. This isn't simply a revisionist exercise, patching up inconvenient holes in the historical record. Instead, Ruga excavates collective memory and exclusionary national myth to rebuild both in wholly new shapes - to make a world where the exiled can reign. The result is a land of many queens, lost and found and forgotten."1 1.
