Join us for a compelling evening with New York Times best-selling author Cristina Henríquez as we close out this year’s Greensboro Bound Book Festival with a powerful, thought-provoking discussion. While the festival takes place May 17, this culminating event on May 28 offers one final opportunity to gather in celebration of literature and storytelling.Henríquez will discuss her latest novel, The Great Divide, a moving exploration of the people who lived, loved, and labored during the construction of the Panama Canal. She will also share her personal experience of “the divide within,” reflecting on her identity as both American and Panamanian and how her sense of self has evolved over time.
In conversation with Jodie Stanley, City of Greensboro’s International Support and Language Access Coordinator, Henríquez will delve into themes of culture, identity, community, and belonging.
