Harvard Book Store welcomes award-winning author DANZY SENNA—author of Caucasia, Symptomatic, Where Did You Sleep Last Night?, and You Are Free—for a discussion of her latest book, New People: A Novel.
As the twentieth century draws to a close, Maria is at the start of a life she never thought possible. She and Khalil, her college sweetheart, are planning their wedding. Everything Maria knows she should want lies before her—yet she can’t stop daydreaming about another man, a poet she barely knows. As fantasy escalates to fixation, it dredges up secrets from the past and threatens to unravel not only Maria’s perfect new life but her very persona.
