Book signing and reception following the reading

Celebrated as "one of contemporary fiction's most distinctive and 
irresistible new voices" in the New York Times and "one of the 20 
best authors of this century in The New Yorker," Juno Diaz writes
"in a combustible mix of slang and lyricism...loops back and forth in 
time and place, generating sly and lascivious humor in counterpoint 
to tyranny and sorrow... Propelled by compassion, Diaz's novel is 
intrepid and radiant."  Walter Mosley

Co-sponsored by the Baldwin Scholars Program and School of 
Humanities, Arts, and Cultural Studies at Hampshire College.
