Memoirs on Mortality and Murder at Brookline Booksmith

June 1, 2017 | 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Join authors ALEXANDRIA MARZANO-LESNEVICH and KRISTEN RADTKE for a discussion of their memoirs: The Fact of a Body and Imagine Wanting Only This. Together, they work as a double-header exploring the nature of death from very different angles. Marzano-Lesnevich charts her complicated relationship with the case of a convicted murder, while Radtke’s graphic memoir examines how an uncle’s death triggered a lifelong fascination with ruins, and the people and places death leaves behind.

This event is free and open to the public.
