Three Voices, Three Worlds: Litquake 2021

Join us at Litquake Out Loud stage as three award-winning writers of diverse origins and methods, Achy Obejas, Carolina de Robertas and Ingrid Rojas Contreras, read from works, new and forthcoming. Achy Obejas presents Boomerang/Bumerán, a unique and inspiring bilingual collection of lyrical poetry written in a bold, mostly gender-free English and Spanish that address immigration, displacement, love and activism. Contreras presents a new work of non-fiction, a family memoir about her grandfather, a curandero from Colombia who it was said had the power to move clouds, forthcoming from Doubleday in Summer of 2022. Carolina presents The President and The Frog, an incandescent novel—political, mystical, timely, and heartening—about the power of memory, and the pursuit of justice, from the acclaimed author of Cantoras.
