Join us to celebrate the centenary of William H. Gass (1924-2017), renowned fiction writer, essayist, and Washington University professor emeritus. A panel of former students and colleagues of Gass will discuss his influence on their lives and careers. Then, WashU’s Martin Riker will interview novelist and Conjunctions editor Bradford Morrow to discuss Morrow’s long friendship and professional relationship with Gass. The panel and conversation will be available via Zoom (registration required for link). A reception and exhibit viewing will follow these talks.
Free and open to all. Registration is required: https://library.wustl.edu/events/gass-centenary/
