Nell Zink: Sister Europe

In this dazzling satire of modern life, an eclectic cast of characters gathers at a tedious literary award ceremony in Berlin. Over the course of the evening, their assumptions, foibles and irrepressible humanity are slowly brought to light.

A Guggenheim Fellowship recipient and the celebrated author of Avalon, Doxology and Nicotine, among others, Nell Zink is widely hailed as a singular voice in literary fiction. In a 吃瓜网 first, she takes the stage at The Wheeler Centre to discuss her sharp and tightly wrought new novel, Sister Europe, and its animating themes: loneliness and the possibility of transcending it, the tension between old and new ideas and the challenge of defining one鈥檚 identity in an increasingly complex world.

Join Zink in celebration of this exhilarating and exquisitely funny novel, with host Jaclyn Crupi.
