CLUSTER's inaugural Author Reading features 9 writers asking how do we spend our time, what is our truth, what guides meaning?
About this Event

How to Live the Time of Your Life is taken from a Zadie Smith quote that questions, within our fragile, short existences, how do we spend our time, what is our truth, what guides meaning in our lives?

This literary event features 9 writers whose pieces are inspired by the 20 Lessons from Timothy Snyder’s book, On Tyranny: 20 Lessons from the 20th Century. Stay for a Q&A afterwards with the authors. This author event is in connection to CLUSTER's current gallery exhibition .

Authors include Mouna Ammar, Ashwini Bhasi, A.E., Zilka Joseph, Ryan McCarty, Ruth Mella, Molly Raynor, Ciatta Tucker, and Frances Kai-Hwa Wang. This event is guest-curated by writer Kyunghee Kim and Cam Finch, writer & founder of PoetTreeTown.

“The question is: How to live the time of your life - the intimate time of your life- alongside the time of history. Which do you devote yourself to? Which deserves your attention? Which is real?” - Zadie Smith
