Granta 116: Ten Years Later, Event Dates
To mark the release of Granta 116: Ten Years Later, in which my newest article appears, I’ll be participating in three events on the East Coast in early September.
Here are the event details:
MADISON, CT
R.J. JULIA BOOKSELLERS
6 September, 7 p.m., 768 Boston Post Road, Madison, CT 06443
One day in September, a decade ago, all eyes were turned towards New
York. Where are we looking now? Through fiction, reportage, memoir,
poetry and photography, Granta 116: 10 Years Later looks at how an event
like 9/11 reverberates, with stories from Tunisia to Toronto. As part of
an event series that spans the nation, Granta 116 contributor Elliott
Woods and others will explore this topic through readings and
conversation with Granta Assistant Editor Patrick Ryan. Free.
PHILADELPHIA, PA
ROBIN’S BOOKSTORE AND MOONSTONE ARTS CENTER
7 September, 7 p.m., 110 A S. Thirteenth Street, Philadelphia, PA 19107
With poet Daisy Fried, author Whitney Terrell and Granta 116 contributor
Elliott Woods. Free.
WASHINGTON DC
POLITICS AND PROSE
13 September, 7 p.m., 5015 Connecticut Avenue NW, Washington, D.C. 20008
One day in September, a decade ago, all eyes were turned towards New
York. Where are we looking now? Through fiction, reportage, memoir,
poetry and photography, Granta 116: 10 Years Later looks at how an event
like 9/11 reverberates, with stories from Tunisia to Toronto. As part of
an event series that spans the nation, novelist Olga Grushin, Granta 116
contributor Elliott Woods and foreign affairs journalist Robin Wright
will explore this topic through readings and in conversation with Steve
Coll, the president of the New America Foundation. Free.
Come on out and say hello at one of these events if you can make it. I’ll be talking about my ongoing work in Afghanistan and here at home with young veterans of America’s 21st century wars.
