Recommended
As part of their 2021 literary series inspired by the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, acclaimed writers Rebecca Makkai (whose novel The Great Believers was a National Book Award finalist), Oglala Lakota poet Layli Long Soldier (whose collection Whereas explores the US government's legal oppression of Native peoples), and Lucy Tan (whose debut novel What We Were Promised follows a family who immigrated to America from Shanghai and back to China again) will take on what Shakespeare called "the undiscovered country," aka death and dying.
