SEE EVENT DETAILS
Whiting Award-winning writer and author of the celebrated memoir Ordinary Girls, Jaquira Díaz, is set to publish her highly anticipated debut novel, THIS IS THE ONLY KINGDOM, a rich and moving multi-generational family story, set between Puerto Rico and Miami. When Ordinary Girls published in 2019, The New York Times Book Review hailed Jaquira as & "meticulous in her craft, and on page after page her writing truly sings." Now, Díaz takes that "fierce, unflinching" (Poets & Writers) voice and brings it to a cast of characters whose troubles and triumphs will linger with readers long after they've closed the book. Jaquira will be joined in conversation with Caro De Robertis, the author of So Many Stars.
