About this Event

The best memoirs are not just an account of a single life, but a guide to how to live. Michael Loughran gives us this gift in Windower, a memoir of grief, an account of the years before and after losing his wife to suicide, a document of love's impossible forms. It's a vital book about being human amid loss, about how to go on in this devastating and beautiful world.

Memoirist Jeannie Vanasco will join Michael in conversation in a perfect pairing-- Jeannie's new memoir, A Silent Treatment, explores the loneliness and isolation of silence as punishment, and where love lives amidst it. Mark your calendars for a night of reflection and insight.
