Book Club | Nonfiction Group: Memorial Drive by Pulitzer Prize Winner Natasha Trethewey (online)


The group discusses Trethewey’s highly acclaimed, chillingly personal and exquisitely wrought memoir of a daughter reckoning with the brutal murder of her mother at the hands of her former stepfather, and the moving, intimate story of a poet coming into her own in the wake of a tragedy. Moving through her mother’s history in the deeply segregated South and through her own girlhood as a “child of miscegenation” in Mississippi, Trethewey plumbs her sense of dislocation and displacement in the lead-up to the harrowing crime that took place on Memorial Drive in Atlanta in 1985, producing a luminous, urgent, and visceral memoir from one of our most important contemporary writers and thinkers.
