SUMMARY:Litquake Event: Alternative Histories
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by Yerba Buena Community Benefit District \nCo-presented by The National Book Critics Circle \nJoin author Ricco Villanueva Siasoco in a conversation with three debut novelists about the process of building alternative histories of the American West\, from the Gold Rush through World War I. Patty Enrado’s A Village in the Fields highlights a compelling but buried piece of American history: the Filipino-American contribution to the farm labor movement; Rishi Reddi’s epic Passage West\, Los Angeles Times’ Best California Book of 2020\, explores a Punjabi sharecropper family in California during World War I\, as they work and live alongside their Mexican in-laws and Japanese neighbors; while Tom Lin’s debut novel The Thousand Crimes of Ming Tsu\, transforms the genre of the Western in a story of revenge for forced labor in the American railroad’s expansion. FREE\, $5-10 suggested donation (pre-registration required). Register here. \nThis program is indoors. Mask and proof of vaccination are required at the door. Please read the requirements at litquake.org/covid. \nBrowse Litquake’s bookstore here — https://bookshop.org/shop/litquake
