About

Marie Darrieussecq appears with Anne de Marcken to discuss her work and her two newly translated novels, How to Make a Woman and Our Life in the Forest, both published in English by Transit Books. The novels centre on two childhood friends coming of age in the French Basque Country of the 1980s, and on a woman in a near-future world reflecting on her failing body, her clone and the mechanisms of the society that shaped them. Part of Darrieussecq's November Bay Area and Seattle tour. Registration is offered in advance.
