Enjoy an hour at the UP Bookstore with a reading by nonfiction writer Erica Berry on Wednesday, February 26, from 5:30-6:30 p.m. Berry is the author of the 2024 Oregon Book Award winner Wolfish: Wolf, Self, and the Stories We Tell About Fear, which explores our cultural constructions of predator and prey, and what it means to navigate a world in which we can be both, through the lens of a wrongfully misunderstood species.
Berry is a writer and teacher based here in Portland. She is the recent winner of Literary Arts’ Oregon Career Fellowship, and her essays have been widely published in The Guardian, The New York Times, Outside, The Yale Review, and The Atlantic.
This event is co-sponsored by the Departments of Environmental Studies and English. To find more information and read an excerpt from Wolfish, visit the Readings and Lectures Series page. For questions and more detailed information, contact Lars Larson.
