SUMMARY:BABEL | Kiese Laymon
DESCRIPTION:Just Buffalo Literary Center presents\nBABEL featuring Kiese Laymon\nThursday\, April 25\, 2024\n8:00 pm\nDoors open & VIP Patron Reception at 7:00 p.m. \nFeatured Book: Heavy: An American Memoir \nJoin Just Buffalo Literary Center for an evening with award-winning author Kiese Laymon whose urgent message will bring the audience to both tears and laughter as he reflects on his book\, Heavy: An American Memoir. \nSeason Subscriptions include a ticket for all (4) of Just Buffalo Literary Center’s BABEL 2023-24 events. \nABOUT THE AUTHOR\nKIESE LAYMON is a Black southern writer from Jackson\, Mississippi. In his observant\, often hilarious work\, Laymon does battle with the personal and the political: race and family\, body and shame\, poverty and place. His savage humor and clear-eyed perceptiveness have earned him comparisons to Ta-Nehisi Coates\, Alice Walker\, and Mark Twain. He is the author of the award-winning memoir Heavy\, the groundbreaking essay collection How to Slowly Kill Yourself and Others in America\, and the genre-defying novel Long Division. \nLaymon’s memoir Heavy won the 2019 Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Nonfiction and was named one of the Best Memoirs of the Past 50 Years by The New York Times. A personal narrative that illuminates national failures\, Heavy is defiant yet vulnerable—an insightful\, often comical exploration of weight\, identity\, art\, friendship\, and family. \nABOUT THE BOOK  \n*Named a Best Book of the Year by the New York Times\, Publishers Weekly\, NPR\, Broadly\, Buzzfeed (Nonfiction)\, The Undefeated\, Library Journal (Biography/Memoirs)\, The Washington Post (Nonfiction)\, Southern Living (Southern)\, Entertainment Weekly\, and The New York Times Critics* \nIn this powerful\, provocative\, and universally lauded memoir—winner of the Andrew Carnegie Medal and finalist for the Kirkus Prize—genre-bending essayist and novelist Kiese Laymon “provocatively meditates on his trauma growing up as a black man\, and in turn crafts an essential polemic against American moral rot” (Entertainment Weekly). \nIn Heavy\, Laymon writes eloquently and honestly about growing up a hard-headed black son to a complicated and brilliant black mother in Jackson\, Mississippi. From his early experiences of sexual violence\, to his suspension from college\, to time in New York as a college professor\, Laymon charts his complex relationship with his mother\, grandmother\, anorexia\, obesity\, sex\, writing\, and ultimately gambling. Heavy is a “gorgeous\, gutting…generous” (The New York Times) memoir that combines personal stories with piercing intellect to reflect both on the strife of American society and on Laymon’s experiences with abuse. By attempting to name secrets and lies he and his mother spent a lifetime avoiding\, he asks us to confront the terrifying possibility that few in this nation actually know how to responsibly love\, and even fewer want to live under the weight of actually becoming free.

This is also the story of Dr. Larch’s favorite orphan\, Homer Wells\, who is never adopted.\n\n“Superb in scope and originality\, a novel as good as one could hope to find from any author\, anywhere\, anytime.

SUMMARY:BABEL | Jhumpa Lahiri
DESCRIPTION:Just Buffalo Literary Center presents\nBABEL featuring Jhumpa Lahiri\nFriday\, October 6\, 2023\n8:00pm\nDoors open & VIP Patron Reception at 7:00 p.m. \nJoin Just Buffalo Literary Center for an evening with Pulitzer Prize-winning author Jhumpa Lahiri who will talk about her life’s work\, the power of translation\, as well as her recent book\, Whereabouts: A Novel. \nSeason Subscriptions include a ticket for all (4) of Just Buffalo Literary Center’s BABEL 2023-24 events. \nABOUT THE AUTHOR \nJHUMPA LAHIRI\, a bilingual writer and translator\, is the Millicent C. McIntosh Professor of English and Director of Creative Writing at Barnard College (Columbia University). She received the Pulitzer Prize in 2000 for Interpreter of Maladies\, her debut story collection. She is also the author of The Namesake\, Unaccustomed Earth\, and The Lowland\, which was a finalist for both the Man Booker Prize and the National Book Award in fiction. Since 2015\, Lahiri has been writing fiction\, essays\, and poetry in Italian: In Altre Parole (In Other Words)\, Il Vestito dei libri (The Clothing of Books)\, Dove mi trovo (self-translated as Whereabouts)\, Il quaderno di Nerina\, and Racconti romani. Lahiri received the National Humanities Medal from President Barack Obama in 2014. Her most recent book in English is a collection of essays entitled Translating Myself and Others\, published in Spring 2022 by Princeton University Press. \nABOUT THE BOOK  \nNEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER \nA marvelous new novel from the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Lowland and Interpreter of Maladies about a woman questioning her place in the world\, wavering between stasis and movement\, between the need to belong and the refusal to form lasting ties.\n\nExuberance and dread\, attachment and estrangement: in this novel\, Jhumpa Lahiri stretches her themes to the limit. In the arc of one year\, an unnamed narrator in an unnamed city\, in the middle of her life’s journey\, realizes that she’s lost her way. The city she calls home acts as a companion and interlocutor: traversing the streets around her house\, and in parks\, piazzas\, museums\, stores\, and coffee bars\, she feels less alone.
