Peninsula Arts & Letters presents An Evening with Jodi Picoult
Tuesday, October 18, 7:30pm
Doors open at 6:30pm
Join us for a very special evening with Jodi Picoult, one of the most widely loved writers of our time, to celebrate the publication of her new novel, Small Great Things.
Known as the queen of controversial topics, none of them have affected her as much as her latest, which brings race and prejudice to the forefront with a black woman as the main character. Jodi was perhaps most surprised by her own “white privilege” and biases she wasn’t even aware she had.
Jodi is one of the most generous authors around today, and there's nothing she loves more than to meet and talk with her fans. Her excitement is contagious, her speaking style genuine and engaged; this is sure to be an unforgettable evening that you don't want to miss! And Jodi has said that what she has learned about race from writing this novel, is something she just can't stop talking about and she can't move on from. Join us for what is sure to be an impassioned, brave, and heartfelt presentation with one of the most beloved storytellers of today.
Jodi Picoult is the author of twenty-two novels, including the #1 New York Times bestsellers My Sister's Keeper, The Storytellers, Lone Wolf, Between the Lines, House Rules, Handle with Care, and Change of Heart. She sits on the advisory board of VIDA: Women in Literary Arts, whose goal is to increase critical attention to contemporary women’s writing. She is part of numerous non-profit projects, including the Writer’s Council for the National Writing Project, which helps teachers enhance student writing.
