Attend in person
First published in Argentina in 2015 and now finally available in English, Fernanda Trías’s Pink Slime traces the complications of re-imagining family in the wake of ecological disaster while Samanta Schweblin’s short stories, Seven Empty Houses, sets the comforts of home off-kilter. Trías and Schweblin join us to discuss the complexity of finding where home lies in a turbulent world and the islands of respite that make life worth living. Chaired by Heather Parry.
