Join us for a conversation about What We Lose, a stunning novel about a young African-American woman coming of age — a deeply felt meditation on race, sex, family and country, from an author of rare, haunting power. Zinzi Clemmons will be in conversation with Caille Milner.
The conversation will be followed by a book signing.
