Literary Conversations: Guns

The PEN/Faulkner Foundation is a nonprofit literary organization that promotes a lifelong love of reading and a connection to writing through public events, in-school education, and public promotion of exceptional literary achievement. We annually administer the PEN/Malamud Award for Excellence in the Short Story and the PEN/Faulkner Award for Fiction, one of the highest honors available to American fiction writers.

Don't miss this Literary Conversation featuring Jennifer Clement, Toni Jensen, Nic Stone, and Glory Edim!

Our national conversation about guns is dominated by polarizing rhetoric. In literature, however, we find nuance and complex human stories about the impact of gun violence on American life. To explore those stories, please join us for GUNS, a conversation with Jennifer Clement (Gun Love), Toni Jensen (Carry), and Nic Stone (Dear Martin) in conversation with Glory Edim, founder of Well-Read Black Girl. This project is supported in part by the National Endowment for the Arts.We will provide live captioning.
