About This Event
Join NC State alumnus Jai Chakrabarti and Jill McCorkle, NC State Professor of the Practice, for an evening of conversation about their most recent works. Chakrabarti is the author of the celebrated novel A Play for the End of the World, which won the National Jewish Book Award. His most recent book, the story collection A Small Sacrifice for an Enormous Happiness, features “lush, immersive stories set in India and America about people trying to make families” (Kirkus Reviews). McCorkle is a professor of the practice and mentor in NC State’s Department of English. Five of her books have been New York Times Notable Books, and Life After Life became a New York Times bestseller. Her latest novel, Hieroglyphics, dives into the burden of secrets carried across generations.
