11 a.m. / Room 3314 (Bldg. 3, 3rd Floor)
A young Russian woman comes into
her own in the midst of revolution and
civil war in JANET FITCH’s Chimes of a
Lost Cathedral. In her novel A Student
of History, NINA REVOYR explores both,
the beginnings of Los Angeles and the
present-day dynamics of race and
class. In SUSAN CHOI’s novel, The Trust
Exercise, students at a highly competitive
performing arts high school struggle and
thrive in a rarified bubble in the 1980s.
