Neilly Series Lecture:Lauren Holmes
Hawkins-Carlson Room, Rush Rhees Library
November 10, 2016 7:00pm to 9:00pm
Lauren Holmes received her BA from Wellesley College and MFA
from Hunter College. Her first book, Barbara the Slut and Other
People, was named a Best Book of 2015 by NPR and Publisher's
Weekly among other publications.
Through its ten short stories, Holmes' book manages to capture
the millennial experience and its unique challenges. Her
characters are teenagers and young adults trying to navigate a
world that is becoming increasingly more complicated and
unpredictable as childish expectations face grown-up realities.
Holmes' choice of topics makes her a subtle commentator on
twenty-first-century issues. Her book touches upon immigration,
sexual identity, urban alienation, bullying, online dating, and slutshaming with nuance, humor, and compassion.
She currently lives in upstate New York.
The lecture is free and open to the public. Reserved parking is
available in the Library Lot. The Neilly Series is supported by the
Andrew H. and Janet Dayton Neilly Endowment and the River
Campus Libraries at the University of Rochester.For more information, call 585-275-4461.
