Details

History isn't fixed. It's written and rewritten all the time as historians adopt contemporary perspectives on past events. Writers of historical fiction incorporate those new perspectives into their work, too, revealing new ideas and stories. Join three acclaimed historical novelists — Kaitlyn Greenidge, Jonathan Lee, and Nguyễn Phan Quế Mai — in a conversation moderated by author and PEN/Faulkner board member Bethanne Patrick about bringing fresh artistry to accurate portrayals of history.
 

This Literary Conversation will include readings by our featured authors and will be followed by a live Q&A with the audience. Live captioning will also be available for this event.

We are proud to partner with Politics and Prose as our exclusive bookseller for this event. You can find our featured authors' books on the Politics and Prose website!
