Third Annual Graywolf Literary Salon
“Voices for Our Time” will feature Jamel Brinkley, Tarfia Faizullah and Wayétu Moore. Brinkley’s story collection, “A Lucky Man,” tells of the tenderness and vulnerability of black men and boys whose hopes sometimes betray them. Faizullah’s poetry collection “Registers of Illuminated Villages” transforms accounts of violence, war and loss into poems of many forms and voices. Moore’s forthcoming novel, “She Would be King,” is a retelling of Liberia’s formation through three characters. Graywolf’s Fiona McCrae and Jeff Shotts will moderate the program, with musical performances by the Davu Seru Trio.
