Writer and book critic Kate Tuttle takes us on a tour of The Golden State. Brian Castleberry’s The Californians is an epic novel that spans 100 years of American history, from the early days of cinema to the rise of NFTs, about the drive to create even in times of crisis and the inheritance of grand western dreams. We Tell Ourselves Stories traces Joan Didion’s journey from New York to Hollywood as a screenwriter at the twilight of the old studio system. In this riveting cultural biography, New York Times film critic Alissa Wilkinson examines Didion’s influence through the lens of American mythmaking. These sharp observers of the human condition show us what went wrong with the American Dream.Venue: Mills Auditorium (in former United Way Building).
