PEN: Great Books: An Inheritance of Literary Wealth

Where: Baruch Performing Arts Center, Engelman Recital Hall, 55 Lexington Ave., New York City

Yesteryear’s great works bring us today’s rich literature. How does it happen? One day at a time as a writer develops his or her writing voice, learning from or reacting against those who went before them. For the fourth year in a row, Baruch Colleges Great Works Program asks its participants to select a classic work from among those being studied in the program and to discuss its resonance within his or her life and work.

With Nathacha Appanah, Najat El Hachmi, Adrian Nicole LeBlanc, and Yan Lianke; moderated by John Brenkman

Free and open to the public. No reservations required.

Co-sponsored by The Great Works Program, Baruch College—Weissman School of Arts and Sciences
