Enjoy a range of talks from bestselling authors and thought leaders.This week, Javier Zamora will discuss Childhood Migration from Central America.
Javier Zamora was born in El Salvador in 1990. His father fled the country when he was one, and his mother when he was about to turn five. Both parents’ migrations were caused by the U.S.-funded Salvadoran Civil War. When he was nine, Javier migrated through Guatemala, Mexico, and the Sonoran Desert. His debut poetry collection, Unaccompanied, explores the impact of the war and immigration on his family. Zamora has been a Stegner Fellow at Stanford and a Radcliffe Fellow at Harvard and holds fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts and the Poetry Foundation.
This event will also be presented in Spanish on Thursday, November 14 at 4 pm. Please visit libraryc.org/cphlibrary/60435 for more information.
