SUMMARY:(Online) Torrey Peters on Detransition\, Baby
DESCRIPTION:Join Evenings with an Author (online) to discuss \nDetransition\, Baby\nwith author Torrey Peters \nClick here to RSVP \nPeters’ electrifying and provocative debut\, Detransition\, Baby\, follows three women – transgender and cisgender –whose lives collide after an unexpected pregnancy forces them to confront their deepest desires around gender\, motherhood\, and sex. Equipped with original\, witty and visceral prose\, Peters explores love\, the evolving shape of the modern family\, as well as the trans experience in all of its complex messiness. Described as a “deeply searching novel that resists easy answers\,” Detransition\, Baby enters the canon of trans culture with aplomb. \nClick here to RSVP \nReese almost had it all: a loving relationship with Amy\, an apartment in New York City\, a job she didn’t hate. She had scraped together what previous generations of trans women could only dream of: a life of mundane\, bourgeois comforts. The only thing missing was a child. But then her girlfriend\, Amy\, detransitioned and became Ames\, and everything fell apart. Now Reese is caught in a self-destructive pattern: avoiding her loneliness by sleeping with married men. \nAmes isn’t happy either. He thought detransitioning to live as a man would make life easier\, but that decision cost him his relationship with Reese–and losing her meant losing his only family. Even though their romance is over\, he longs to find a way back to her. When Ames’s boss and lover\, Katrina\, reveals that she’s pregnant with his baby–and that she’s not sure whether she wants to keep it–Ames wonders if this is the chance he’s been waiting for. Could the three of them form some kind of unconventional family–and raise the baby together? \nTorrey Peters is the author of the novel Detransition\, Baby\, published by Random House\, which was longlisted for the Women’s Prize for Fiction. She is also the authors of the novellas Infect Your Friends and Loved Ones and The Masker. She has an MFA from the University of Iowa and a Masters in Comparative Literature from Dartmouth. Peters rides a pink motorcycle and splits her time between Brooklyn and an off-grid cabin in Vermont. For the past few years\, Peters has been part of a trans literary movement based on trans people sharing their work among each other without barriers. \n \n

SUMMARY:(Hybrid) Henry Kissinger: The Diplomat of the Century
DESCRIPTION:Join Evenings with an Author (in-person) to discuss \nHenry Kissinger: The Diplomat of the Century\nwith diplomat Gérard Araud and journalist Elaine Sciolino \nClick here to RSVP for the online event \nClick here to RSVP for the in-person event \nHenry Kissinger: Le diplomate du siècle (2021) is the story of a young Jewish boy born in Germany in 1923. The story begins as Kissinger\, along with his family\, fled from Nazism to New York. Equipped with luminous intelligence\, an industrious ethic\, and an overly playful character\, Kissinger was able to navigate all situations from the streets of the Bronx to greens of Harvard University to the corridors of the White House. First National Security Advisor and then Secretary of State to President Nixon\, Kissinger played a central role in world history. He was central\, for example\, to the end of the Vietnam War\, the opening up of China in 1972\, the détente with the USSR and the Yom Kippur War. He had many successes in the Middle East and Russia\, but also setbacks in Chile and Cambodia. An outstanding negotiator\, he was as much admired as he was detested. \nThough Kissinger left office more than forty years ago\, he still exerts influence as many great contemporary leaders – Putin\, Xi Jinping\, Modi\, Macron – look to his legacy for guidance. With an insider’s gaze\, Gérard Araud\, a diplomat himself\, retraces the trajectory of a man unloved by Americans\, a man of spirit\, and a man of Realpolitik who regulated global power to guarantee world peace. \nClick here to RSVP for the online event \nClick here to RSVP for the in-person event \nAbout the speakers: \nGérard Araud \nAraud is a French diplomat\, who served as Ambassador of France to the United States from 2014 to 2019. He previously held many positions within the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Notably\, he was Director for Strategic Affairs\, Security and Disarmament\, Ambassador of France to Israel\, Director General for Political Affairs and Security\, as well as Representative of France to the United Nations in New York. Over the course of his career\, Araud has developed specialized knowledge in two key areas: Middle East and security issues. He was\, for instance\, the French negotiator on the Iranian nuclear issue from 2006 to 2009. \nSince his retirement in 2019\, he has served as trustee of the International Crisis Group and as Senior Distinguished Fellow of the Atlantic Council in Washington DC. He is a columnist for the French weekly Le Point\, for the French TV channel BFM TV and for the National French Radio France Inter. He has frequently been interviewed as an expert on foreign affairs by CNN International\, the BBC\, as well as other English-language news outlets. \nElaine Sciolino  \nSciolino is a contributing writer and former Paris bureau chief for The New York Times\, based in France since 2002.
