Monday, May 24
7pm
Noted book discussion learder Judy Levin leads a discussion on Krik? Krak! by Edwidge Danticat.
Join the Library, the City, for the community wide read.
Krik? Krak!, the debut story collection from award-winning Haitian-American author Edwidge Danticat, takes its title from a Haitian storytelling tradition in which tales of the past are passed to new generations. Lyrical and compelling, the stories examine the experiences of ordinary Haitian citizens living, loving, and struggling to survive in their repressive society, seeking wisdom and hope along the way. Nominated for the National Book Award in 1995, Krik? Krak! is as relevant today as when first published.
