Join The Wild Detectives for an enlightening evening with acclaimed writer Andrés Neuman (Love Training) as we delve into two of his remarkable books, Once Upon Argentina and Sensitive Anatomy. This special event will be moderated by Chad W. Post from Open Letter Publishing and Dalkey Archive Press, offering a deep dive into Neuman’s diverse literary world.
Sensitive Anatomy explores our relationship with our bodies in an era dominated by digital manipulation and idealized images. Through thirty brief yet profound chapters, Neuman invites us to celebrate the body’s every aspect, challenging societal norms and embracing a more inclusive view of beauty. This work merges the poetic with the political, crafting a hedonistic journey across what truly makes us human.
Once Upon Argentina takes us on a different journey, blending autobiography with fiction in a narrative rich with the echoes of Argentina’s cultural and personal history. The story unfolds through a series of interconnected lives, revealing the intricate tapestry of immigrant identity and the poignant realities of Neuman’s homeland.
Don’t miss this opportunity to explore the intersections of identity, memory, and culture with one of Latin America’s most daring and insightful authors. Join us for a night of thoughtful discussion, literary exploration, and a celebration of Andrés Neuman’s contributions to contemporary literature.
