ABOUT THE EVENT:
How does a novelist approach a historical subject as overwhelming as the Holocaust? What decisions go into jettisoning history, or the reverse, hewing closely to it, when writing a historical novel? Join our conversation with a debut novelist, Martha Anne Toll, to discuss how these considerations and more went into writing THREE MUSES.
ABOUT THE SPEAKER:
Martha Anne Toll‘s debut novel, THREE MUSES, was shortlisted for the Gotham Book Prize and won the Petrichor Prize for Finely Crafted Fiction. Toll writes fiction, essays, and book reviews, and reads anything that’s not nailed down. She brings a long career in social justice to her work covering authors of color and women writers as a critic and author interviewer at NPR Books, the Washington Post, Pointe Magazine, The Millions, and elsewhere. Toll serves on the Board of Directors of the PEN/Faulkner Foundation. Her second novel, DUET FOR ONE, will be published in early 2025.
