ABOUT

Georgia Bridgett (جورجي) is a University of Liverpool BA (Hons) English graduate (specialising in Literature). In 2020 Georgia completed an MA in Social History of Art at the University of Leeds. Her dissertation explored Ariella Azoulay’s theory of ‘watching’ photographs to further understand how citizens engage with photographs of Syrian refugees in the media.

Throughout and alongside her Master’s degree, Georgia has developed a deep interest in Middle Eastern history, culture and politics. She is also interested in relations between the Middle East and the West, and is passionate about challenging common stereotypes and misconceptions about the MENA region. This led her to intern for two months with Pink Jinn and create MENAb00ks. Georgia has also written for charities and these articles are linked in the portfolio. MENAb00ks is where Georgia explores her passion for literature about the MENA region. Her personal blog on this website is where you will find book reviews with a focus on humanitarian literature as well as women’s writing from around the world.
