2. Author Visit- Exploring Bodies in Motion
Part of our Food For Thought Lunch Series
Date & Time: Tuesday, November 17th at 12:00pm-1:00pm
Location: The Asian American Cultural Center 1210 W. Nevada Street
You won't want to miss hearing from the author herself! Dr. Mohanraj will join for a public reading of the book at 12:00pm for our weekly Food For Thought program! Bodies in Motion follow two generations of two families living on the cusp of disparate worlds, America and Sri Lanka -- their lives and ties shaped, strengthened, devastated, and altered by the emigrant-immigrant ebb and flow. Through stunning, effervescent prose, intimate moments are beautifully distilled, revealing the tug-of-war between generations and gender in stories sensual and honest, chronicling love, ambition, and the spiritual and sexual quests of mothers and daughters, fathers and sons."
