Nevada Reads 2021: Meet the Authors
Join Nevada Humanities in celebrating Earth Day with a conversation between Kendra Atleework and Aimee Nezhukumatahil, the 2021 Nevada Reads authors.
This free Zoom event will feature a discussion and Q&A moderated by author and educator Gayle Brandeis around our 2021 Nevada Reads theme, “Cultivating Environmental Literacy.” Our authors will discuss their respective books, Miracle Country: A Memoir (Atleework) and World of Wonders: In Praise of Fireflies, Whale Sharks, and Other Astonishments (Nezhukumatathil), their experiences and motivation for writing these memoirs, and their thoughts on the connection between literature and the natural world.
