SUMMARY:WINTER WORDS - Yaa Gyasi in conversation with Farah Griffin
DESCRIPTION:Yaa Gyasi was born in Ghana and raised in Huntsville\, Alabama. Her debut novel\, Homegoing\, was published in 2016 and was called “an inspiration” by Ta-Nehisi Coates. It was nominated for the Andrew Carnegie Medal and is a finalist for The Center for Fiction’s First Novel Prize. Gyasi was recently named one of the National Book Foundation’s “5 Under 35\,” which recognizes debut fiction writers whose work promises to leave a lasting impression on the literary landscape. She holds a BA in English from Stanford University and an MFA from the Iowa Writers’ Workshop\, where she held a Dean’s Graduate Research Fellowship. She lives in Berkeley\, California. \nGyasi will be interviewed by Farah Griffin\, an author and professor of English\, Comparative Literature\, and African American Studies at Columbia University. Their discussion will focus on Homegoing\, its significance in today’s cultural and political landscape\, as well as the story behind the debut novelist’s breakout success. \nMORE INFO
