Vijay Khurana & Andrés N Ordorica: Boys to Men

Masculinity and vulnerability are examined through the twin lenses of poetry and fiction as poet Andrés N Ordorica’s latest collection, Holy Boys, probes the fragile edges of the transition from boyhood to manhood with characteristic tenderness and in Vijay Khurana’s debut novel, The Passenger Seat, a teenage roadtrip is haunted by the spectre of violence and the inescapable past. This will be a fascinating conversation on the search for identity and connection. Chaired by Cailean Steed.
