Come see three spellbinding authors whose new works explore themes of invisibility and erasure through writing that dreams, drifts, and floats like smoke. YZ Chin’s Though I Get Home examines the fringe of Malaysian culture, politics, and postcolonial memory through intertwined tales of fate and perseverance. In Let’s No One Get Hurt, Jon Pineda weaves a lyrical coming-of-age story that reckons with racial and socioeconomic injustice, and, through protagonist Pearl, animates the lives of those pushed to the periphery in the American South. C. Dale Young is a prize-winning poet whose fiction debut, The Affliction, traces the lives of people who know what is to be disappeared, harkening to the desaparecidos of Latin American history.
