Truth Lives in Language

How can literature resist silencing and repression in an increasingly chaotic world? Join award-winning novelist Kim Echlin discussing her new essay collection, Tell Others: Storytelling for a World in Turmoil. Drawing from her global lived experiences-including teaching in post-revolutionary China and researching war crimes in the former Yugoslavia-Echlin examines how storytelling turns outrage into understanding and how truth and imagination measure our lives against darkness. Kim Echlin is the award-winning author of Speak, Silence, the winner of the Toronto Book Award. Her novel The Disappeared won the Barnes & Noble Discover Great New Writers Award and was shortlisted for the Giller. Kim serves on the board of PEN International and lives in Toronto.
