With his national bestselling novel There There, Tommy Orange (Cheyenne and Arapaho) asks readers to examine their assumptions about who Native Americans are and how and where they live. Join us for an in-depth conversation about this critically acclaimed debut novel with the Washington Post book critic Ron Charles. A brilliant new writer at the start of a major career, Orange talks about his craft, the writing process and Native American history and culture.

A book signing will follow in the Rasmuson Theater Lobby. Copies of There There will be available for purchase.
