SUMMARY:Author Reading: Davide Tarsitano
DESCRIPTION:Join Davide Tarsitano on March 16th at 4pm for a reading of his new book\, Hollow. Author Q&A and signing to follow!\n\n\nIndy Reads is thrilled to welcome back local horror writer\, Davide Tarsitano\, on March 16th at 4pm for a reading of his newest novel\, Hollow. The reading will be followed by an author Q&A and signing. \nThis reading is recommended for ages 13+. \nAll proceeds from purchases at Indy Reads directly support our adult education programming. \n\n\n\nThe world of Peter Hanson\, emerging true crime writer\, is about to fall apart. He is informed by the police that both his parents have been found dead in their bed. The case is quickly closed as an accident\, despite the doubts of Robert Cooper\, the homicide investigator in charge of the case. \nDespite the support of the whole neighborhood\, Peter goes through a really challenging phase where grief mixes with strange manifestations and hideous nightmares to the point where he starts having doubts about his state of mind: the buzz of flies\, the smell of rot and the excruciating babble of a thousand mournful voices. \nThanks to the support of Jack Sullivan\, a former priest specialized in demonic exorcisms\, Peter realizes that sanity and logic have very little to do with the events unfolding. A dark force is at play: an ancient and insatiable evil that feeds off negative human emotion is on the hunt for a new prey. \n\n\n\nDavide Tarsitano is an author of horror and dystopian novels. He was born in Cosenza\, a small town in southern Italy. Tarsitano has won the 2022 Book Fest Literary Contest for Best Horror Novel and The Reader’s Favorite 2022 Award in the same category. He currently lives in Indianapolis with his wife Shanea and his two dogs Lola and Ralph.Published works:The Tooth Fairy (2022)Hollow (2023) \n\n\n\nThis event is Pay-What-You-Can!

SUMMARY:Author Reading:  Susan Muaddi Darraj
DESCRIPTION:In honor of Arab American Heritage Month\, join Susan Muaddi Darraj for a reading and book discussion of “Behind You is the Sea” on April 4!\n\n\nIn honor of Arab American Heritage Month\, join Susan Muaddi Darraj for a reading and book discussion of her debut novel\, Beyond You is the Sea\, on April 4th at 5pm! \nThis event is recommended for all ages. Proceeds from purchases made at Indy Reads supports our English language\, literacy\, and job readiness programming. \n\n\n\nBehind You is the Sea by Susan Muaddi Darraj \nAmerican Book Award winner Susan Muaddi Darraj presents a stirring account of the lives of three Palestinian American families\, bridging the complex divide between two generations.  \nThrough her new breathtaking novel\, Behind You is the Sea (HarperVia; January 16\, 2024)\, Susan Muaddi Darraj offers a timely story about three immigrant Palestinian families and the community they’ve created in Baltimore\, Maryland. Told from the perspective of various residents\, Muaddi Darraj’s debut chronicles the compelling loves of the Baladi\, the Ammar\, and the Salameh families—illustrating the breadth of their experiences as they navigate different social\, economic\, religious\, and class realities. \nIn this engaging account of Arab culture\, Muaddi Darraj provides a polyphonic voice for the Palestinian community that interweaves stories of feminism\, immigration\, class\, generational trauma\, race\, and education. Enlightening readers to the trials of first-generation immigrants and its generational effects on families\, this novel is an accessible\, eye-opening\, and timely reflection of current events—and it’s emotionally gripping and often funny. \nThe Baladi’s struggle financially; in the opening perspective of this multi-narrator novel\, Reema Baladi struggles with a decision of what to do with an unwanted baby\, as her world comes crashing down around her with the impending death of her Baba. \nWe meet Reema later and see what her life has now become\, when Dalia\, the matriarch of the wealthy Ammar family\, employs her sister\, Maysoon Baladi\, to clean up after her spoiled teenagers—and though Dalia and Maysoon despise each other\, Maysoon comes out victorious. In another family tale\, Marcus Salameh is at odds with his immigrant father\, who has thrown his sister out of the family for dishonoring their name. Only on a trip to Palestine to fulfill a wajib\, a familial duty\, does Marcus experience a sudden transformation\, finding a sense of belonging\, and a place to truly call home\, in the least expected place. \nBehind You is the Sea offers an equally complex\, haunting\, and entertaining narrative\, illuminating the difficulties of remaining connected to a culture in a foreign land and creating a future in a country grappling with its own racial and economic trauma\, offering insight into a community that’s just like so many others in America—people who have worked long and hard to establish a sense of belonging in a new place\, eager to fulfill their hopes and dreams. \n\n\n\nSusan Muaddi Darraj is the author of A Curious Land\, a novel in stories that earned an American Book Award and was a finalist for a Palestine Book Award. In 2018\, she was named a Ford Fellow by USA Artists. A past winner of the Maryland State Art Council’s Independent Artist Award\, she is also the author of Farah Rocks\, the first children’s book series to feature a Palestinian-American character. She lives in Baltimore\, Maryland\, and teaches at the Johns Hopkins University. \n\n\n\nThis Event is Pay-What-You-Can \nHere’s what your suggested donation can do for the Indy Reads community: \nFREE – This ticket is for attendees that would like to attend this event and are unable to purchase a ticket.
