Writing beyond borders

The premise is of one "country" where one is "from". I can write long letters about the ins and outs of the country as a socio-political construct and on the many issues with assuming a one-to-one organic relation between country and culture. So I pick the pen and the book for the activity of writing and reading. Allegedly the alphabet was invented in a town 40 Km south of where I was born and it so happened that recent political borders don't cut those 40 km. For the time being.
