The Ninth Donald Sedgwick Reading Series

Stories of survival, travel, finding home and family, and strengthening democracy – these are the subjects of new books by four graduates of the University of King’s College Master of Fine Arts in Creative Nonfiction program who will be celebrated during the Ninth Donald Sedgwick Reading Series.

Please join for this annual reading series, named for the MFA program’s co-founder, former publisher, agent, and publishing instructor Donald Sedgwick.

This year’s featured readers are:

• Gwen Lamont, The View From Coffin Ridge: A Childhood Exhumed (The Ginger Press)

The authors will discuss their books after the readings and the King’s Co-op Bookstore will have copies of the featured books for sale and signing.
