.Tommy Orange in Conversation at Hammer Theatre

Not since Sherman Alexie’s heyday has there been a Native American novelist with as strong a literary tailwind as Oakland-born writer Tommy Orange. His heartfelt and hilarious 2018 novel There, There won a whole mantlepiece of awards, including the American Book Award and the National Book Critics Circle Award (and was a finalist for the Pulitzer). Orange made news recently as one of the writers signing a letter to Oprah Winfrey asking her to withdraw the controversial American Dirt from her book club. He comes to the Hammer to chat live with SJSU English Professor Nick Taylor. RSVP required at hammertheatre.com.
