Virtual Author Talk: Reyna Grande

Findlay Hancock County Public Library Main In her ambitious new memoir, Migrant Heart: Essays About Things I Can't Forget, beloved bestselling author Reyna Grande illuminates the hidden cost of the American Dream and the complex journey of healing that follows survival.What is the true power of stories? Can they heal the jagged edges of a traumatic childhood? Is the cost of telling the story worth the price of the cure?With her signature blend of sophistication and raw honesty, Grande interrogates how living between two nations, two languages, and two identities has shaped the woman, mother, and writer she has become. Moving from the legacy of violence in her hometown of Iguala, Mexico, to a bittersweet family vacation in Europe spent reconciling her own impoverished past with her children's world of abundance, she uncovers startling truths about the nature of survival.This program is presented in partnership with the Marathon Center for the Performing Arts.
