Casey Plett, an accomplished writer who has won the LAMDA Literary Award for Best Transgender Fiction, will provide a reading followed by a short discussion on Thursday, March 29, at 7 p.m. in the Cowles Library Reading Room. Plett writes and speaks to issues that are important to all communities, in particular, the LGBTQ community. Attendees will have a chance to hear good prose and learn about the literary conversation surrounding literature by and about people who identify as transgender. The event is sponsored by the Susan Glaspell Writers and Critics Series. For more information, contact Yasmina Madden at yasmina.madden@drake.edu.
