New York based writer Nadja Spiegelman and local writer and critic Stephanie Van Schilt will discuss matriarchies, gender and cultural identities in contemporary female writing. Nadja will also read from her acclaimed memoir I am supposed to protect you from all this, a personal story of her transnational matriarchy and the complexities of individual and familial identities.
