SLT Reads - August - Trace

Aug 2021 12

5:30 PM to 7:00 PM
Zoom

Thank you to everyone who has joined us at a previous SLT Reads book club discussion! Our August discussion will be held on Thursday, August 12th from 5:30-7:00 on Zoom. We will be reading Trace by: Lauret Savoy.

"In this provocative and powerful mosaic of personal journeys and historical inquiry across a continent and time, Savoy explores how the country’s still unfolding history, and ideas of “race,” have marked her and the land. From twisted terrain within the San Andreas Fault zone to a South Carolina plantation, from national parks to burial grounds, from “Indian Territory” and the U.S.-Mexico Border to the U.S. capital, Trace grapples with a searing national history to reveal the often unvoiced presence of the past.

In distinctive and illuminating prose that is attentive to the rhythms of language and landscapes, she weaves together human stories of migration, silence, and displacement, as epic as the continent they survey, with uplifted mountains, braided streams, and eroded canyons." -Good Reads
