Angela Narciso Torres: Blood Orange
Every month the Women's Museum of California features a woman author who will read from or perform their work and engage in dialogues with audience members. Discussions can center on their latest project, their writing inspiration and process, and challenges of being a woman writer. With the commitment to bring diverse voices and a variety of stories from local and visiting authors, the series will include both published and unpublished works from writers well known, unknown, and all the places in between. This month the Women's of California invites Angela Narciso Torres to speak about her book Blood Orange: Poems, winner of the Willow Books Literature Award for Poetry. The poems in Angela Narciso Torres' book acknowledge the ever-changing nature of home and how, over time, it grows to contain many elements beyond the boundaries of house and body—geographies and objects, oceans and relationships. Tickets are $5
