Food for Thought: We Need New Names (Zoom)

Uzodinma Iweala praises NoViolet Bulawayo’s first novel in her New York Times review. “Bulawayo is clearly a gifted writer. She demonstrates a striking ability to capture the uneasiness that accompanies a newcomer’s arrival in America, to illuminate how the reinvention of the self in a new place confronts the protective memory of the way things were back home.”
