Novelists Sue Miller and Doug Bauer will read from and discuss their respective family memoirs, The Story of My Father and What Happens Next: Matters of Life and Death.
The author of ten best-selling novels, Sue Miller’s The Story of My Father, was heralded as a “beautiful, spare memoir about her relationship with her father during his illness and death from Alzheimer’s disease.”
Douglas Bauer is the author of three novels and numerous non-fiction essays and reviews. In What Happens Next? he weaves together the stories of his own and his parents’ lives, the work and rewards and regrets that defined them, and the inevitable betrayal by their bodies as they aged.
