Event Details

Quan Barry, the amazing author of last year's Big Summer Read, will discuss her new book, When I'm Gone, Look for Me in the East.  Already receiving rave reviews, it is described as "a stunning examination of our individual struggle to retain faith and discover meaning in a fast-changing world, and a paean to Buddhist acceptance of what simply is." Copies of the book will be available for purchase - and author signature! - courtesy of Mystery to Me, an independent bookstore in Madison. 

Born in Saigon and raised on Boston's north shore, Quan Barry is an award-winning novelist, poet, and playwright. Her work has appeared in numerous publications, including The Kenyon Review, Ms. and The New Yorker, and her new play, The Mytilenean Debate, recently wrapped up its first live production at the Forward Theater. 

Registration is required. Wearing a mask is not required, but strongly recommended.
