SUMMARY:Author visit: Lisa Braxton\, "The Talking Drum"
DESCRIPTION:Join Massachusetts author Lisa Braxton on Saturday\, February 18\, 2pm-4pm\, at the Lebowitz Meeting Hall at the Morse Institute Library\, for a discussion on her debut novel\, The Talking Drum. Register here. \nThe Talking Drum explores intra-racial\, class\, and cross-cultural tensions\, along with the meaning of community and belonging. \nThe novel explores the profound impact gentrification has on people in many neighborhoods\, and the way in which being uprooted affects the fabric of their families\, friendships\, and emotional well-being. The novel not only explores the immigrant experience\, but how the immigrant/African American neighborhood interface leads to friction and tension\, a theme also not explored much in current literature involving immigrants. The book is a springboard to an important discussion on race and class differences\, the treatment of immigrants\, as well as the government’s relationship to society.
