Divides shape our lives–across eras, borders, and political landscapes. But how do these shifts of time, place, and circumstance impact who we are?
Join authors, Daniel Kehlmann (The Director), Amitava Kumar (My Beloved Life), and Reyna Grande (A Ballad of Love and Glory) for an exciting conversation with writer Sam Sussman. Together, they’ll explore how changing political environments reflect the shifting nature of personhood. Following characters going from Hollywood’s golden age to Nazi propaganda offices, from pre-independence India to a newly independent nation, and from 19th-century America to a Mexican battlefield – these stories span nations and generations, united by one question: How do the worlds around us shape our choices, identities and our lives?
