Elizabeth Ellen reads from her debut short story collection, Before
You She Was a Pitbull, all about women and girls: women sleeping with
the wrong men, girls suffering at the hands of their mothers. It’s a
52-page catalog of the pains of the female heart. Elizabeth Ellen is
the editor of Hobart’s “Short Flight/Long Drive”
book series. Mexican-American author Myriam Gurba reads from Dahlia
Season, a book about a young woman sent to Catholic school to
extinguish her weirdness and the screwy brain chemistry that holds the
key to her madness. More info: www.dahliaseason.com ,
