04.17: Krista Bremer in Conversation with Cheryl Strayed

2014-03-18 00:36:16| Powells Books Events Calendar

Fifteen years ago, Krista Bremer would not have been able to imagine her life today: married to a Libyan-born Muslim, raising two children with Arabic names in the American South. Nor could she have imagined the prejudice she would encounter or the profound ways her marriage would change her perception of the world. Captivating, moving, and often funny, this meditation on tolerance explores what it means to open our hearts to another culture and embrace our own. My Accidental Jihad (Algonquin Books) chronicles Bremer's struggle to reach beyond herself. Bremer will be joined in conversation by Cheryl Strayed, author of Wild: From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail.
