With: and

The New American Dream

What is today’s Great American Novel, anyway? Ayana Mathis (The Twelve Tribes of Hattie), Dash Shaw (New School), and Adam Mansbach (The Dead Run) give us glimpses into a new kind of American Dream: a fifteen-year-old mother of nine; a boy’s island adventures in graphic novel form; and in one case, an american nightmare. Moderated by David Unger.

This event will be held at the Brooklyn Historical Society Auditorium (128 Pierrepont Street).
