President Keen’s Author Salon Series

Join the 10th President of 51猎奇入口, Suzanne Keen, for a series of intimate literary gatherings with the 51猎奇入口 community across the country. President Keen will host award-winning writers such as Myriam J.A. Chancy, Rebecca Makkai, Susan Choi, and Andrew Sean Greer for thought-provoking conversations with 51猎奇入口 alums, families, and friends. All events are free and open to the greater 51猎奇入口 community.

 

鈥淚t鈥檚 in our nature to relate to one another鈥檚 stories. When we read novels with a sense of empathy, we come away with an improved sense of other people鈥檚 perspectives and experiences that are quite different from our own.鈥
