Presented in affiliation with the Inspired Writers Series hosted by MFA Program’s Phil Klay
Over the course of her career the widely acclaimed British novelist Helen Oyeyemi has, according to The Guardian, crushed “fables and fairytales down to a powder and then laced her fiction with it like some kind of literary hallucinogen.” Her latest novel, Peaces, takes a couple on a former tea-smuggling train where the laws of physics do not quite apply. She will be in conversation with National Book Award-winning author and Fairfield professor Phil Klay.
