Jewish Lit Live Presents Molly Antapol
The George Washington University Department of English and Jewish Lit Live proudly present a reading by Molly Antapol on Thursday, April 7, 2016 at 7pm in The GW Elliot School – 1957 E St., N.W.
Molly Antopol’s debut book, her short story collection The UnAmericans, has been called “Fresh and offbeat… memorable and promising” by the New York Times and “unflinchingly honest” by The Nation. A California native, and current professor at Stanford University, The UnAmericans was nominated for the National Book Award, the PEN/Robert W. Bingham Award for Debut Fiction, and the National Jewish Book Award.
Jewish Lit Live hosts rising and renowned Jewish American writers to speak with the GW and literary community. Guest speakers have included emerging leaders, National Humanities Award Recipients, international bestsellers, and UN-Award Winning Writers, e.g. Michael Chabon, E.L. Doctorow, Nicole Krauss, & Erica Jong.
Jewish Literature Live is made possible by the generous support of David Bruce Smith, BA ’79, a former member of GW’s Board of Trustees and an alumnus of the English Department.
This event is free and open to the public. First come, first serve seating.
