From the lives of girls and women caught in the military’s orbit to exploring repressed desires through the lens of (un)conditional love in Nigeria to diasporic Indians that question what it means to be safe, to survive, and to call a place home, short story collections have the breadth and depth to distill the essence of the human condition.
Join us for a lively discussion with debut authors Deepa Rajagopalan, Sara Power, and Vincent Anioke as they read from their debut collections, discuss their experiences getting published for the first time, and what it is about the short story form that reveals answers to life’s most pressing questions. Moderated by Lara El Mekaui.
