SUMMARY:STORIES ON SUNDAY: Mothers and Other Fictional Characters (Nicole Graev Lipson)
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy a reading\, then hear the story behind the stories during Stories on Sunday with Nicole Graev Lipson\, author of Mothers and Other Fictional Characters: A Memoir in Essays. \nAll Stories on Sundays guest readers have a connection to Hippocampus Magazine. Nicole’s essay “The New Pretty” was the runner-up in our 2020 Remember in November Contest for Creative Nonfiction and we also nominated it for a Pushcart Prize that year. \nFrom the Jacket Copy: What does it take to escape the plotlines mapped onto us? Searching for clues in the work of her literary foremothers\, Lipson untangles what it means to be a girl\, a woman\, a lover\, a partner\, a daughter\, and a mother in a world all too ready to reduce us to stock characters. Whether she’s testing the fragile borders of fidelity\, embracing the taboo power of female friendship\, escaping her family for the solitude of the mountains\, or letting go of the children she imagined for the ones she’s raising\, Lipson pushes beyond the easy\, surface stories we tell about ourselves to brave less certain territory. \nRisky and revealing\, nourishing and affirming\, rigorous and sexy\, Mothers and Other Fictional Characters is a shimmering love letter to our forgotten selves—and the ones we’re still becoming. \nWe hope you will join us! Note: All registered attendees will get a link to the recording\, so be sure to register even if you cannot make it life. \nAbout the Series: Stories on Sundays are bi-monthly readings from a recent/forthcoming work of creative nonfiction followed by an author interview + audience Q&A. Your registration helps fund our contributor payments and other costs associated with running our journal. \nMeet the Speaker\nAll Stories on Sundays guest readers have a connection to Hippocampus Magazine.
