Author Reading: Elizabeth Mehren and Contributors
The following description was submitted by the event organizer.
BOLD is honored to host a reading featuring author Elizabeth Mehren and contributors of I Lived to Tell the World.
I Lived to Tell the World presents 13 inspiring profiles of men and women who have endured unthinkable cruelty only to resume productive lives in Oregon. They come from Rwanda, Myanmar, Bosnia, Syria and more — different stories and conflicts, but similar paths through loss and violence to a new, not always easy, life in the United States. These profiles inspire readers to reflect on their own experiences.
