A Conversation with Aimee Bender - CANCELED

This is an Archive of a Past Event

The McCoy Center for Ethics and Society, in partnership with the Creative Writing Program, is pleased to present the explosive linguistic talent and boundary blurring short story writer and novelist, Aimee Bender. The author of three collections of short stories, a novel, and a novella, Bender is one of the most respected and anthologized fiction writers of her generation. From the groundbreaking debut Girl with Flammable Skirt to the emotive flavors of the Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake, Bender's prose is, in the words of the Atlantic Monthly, "so animated it seems almost capable of writing itself.”

This event is part of the Frankenstein 200 series at Stanford. Bender will be in conversation with Jones Lecturers and former Stegner Fellows in fiction, Kate Peterson and Mark Labowskie.

THIS EVENT IS TO BE RESCHEDULED. PLEASE CHECK BACK FOR A REVISED DATE AND TIME.
