Latin American Short Stories

Join us for a literary workshop at 6 PM on Wednesday evenings (Sept. 24, Oct. 1, and Oct. 8), exploring contemporary Latin American fiction. We will read short stories by Roberto Bolaño, Alejandro Zambra, and Liliana Colanzi that offer a window into a side of Latin America not often seen in the United States.

We will delve into an unlikely friendship between two writers in exile, a young woman's disturbing coming-of-age under her mother's watchful religious eye, and one man's memories of a brutal Chilean school. All are welcome to participate in this literary discussion.
