In this powerful and intimate event, join me, Natasha Trethewey, and Cristina Rivera Garza to discuss writing on life’s “big impossible things.” Across award-winning works of poetry, memoir, and fiction each of these authors have delved into stories of memory, trauma, and the ripple effects of grief. Join us for a conversation on craft and the creative process, the transformative power of literature, and how writing into a wound can lead to the light. There will be a book signing following the event.
