Arlington Reads with Jesmyn Ward

  • Arlington County Public Library 1015 North Quincy Street Arlington, VA, 22201 United States (map)

Join us for a conversation between author Jesmyn Ward and author and essayist Ralph Eubanks about Ward's newest novel, "Let Us Descend," a reimagining of American slavery, as beautifully rendered as it is heart-wrenching. This author talk is part of the 2024 Arlington Reads spring series, "James Baldwin Centennial," which celebrates what would have been James Baldwin's 100th birthday in August 2024 with a series of authors whose work is about or influenced by James Baldwin.
