31. Valeria Luiselli in Conversation

Your favourite author likely reads Valeria Luiselli. The Chicago Review of Books called her “a bard for our modern times.” The recipient of a MacArthur “Genius Grant” and International Dublin Literary Award, her awards and accolades are countless. In her latest anticipated novel, Beginning Middle End, a mother and daughter take a roadtrip across Sicily following the collapse of a marriage and the dissolution of their traditional family structure. The journey unearths the origins of many generations of the family, and even further back, to a mythical and geological past. In conversation with Eleanor Wachtel, Luiselli will delve into eternal questions about home, family, time, and memory.  

Presented in partnership with Vancouver Latin American Cultural Centre Society.
