Big Dog Reading Series: Danielle Evans

The Official Cover

Danielle Evans, author of the short story collection Before You Suffocate Your Own Fool Self, will be visiting campus on October 2nd!  She will be conducting a reading at 7 p.m. in Monty's Assembly room.

A graduate of Columbia University and the Iowa Writer's Workshop, she has won numerous awards, including the 2011 PEN/Robert Bingham Prize and three inclusions in the Best American Short Stories (2008, 2010, and 2017).

The New York Times Book Review calls her work: "Whip smart," while the Boston Globe review says Evans writes "Emotion wracked tales of love and race... Evans pulls off writing that makes your throat catch... Intriguing, disturbing, and memorable."

We hope to see you there!
