In her latest book, How to Read Now: Essays, Elaine Castillo explores the "politics and ethics of reading, and insists that we are capable of something better: a more engaged relationship not just with our fiction and our art, but with our buried and entangled histories." In this year’s FilBookFest keynote, Castillo will discuss her ambitious hopes for our reading culture.
The Filipino American International Book Festival is the largest and only international book festival in the US featuring Filipinx and Filipinix American authors and books. This year's theme is Kaisá't Kasama: Celebrating Our Diverse Voices and Solidarity.
