The author of novels, plays, poetry, short stories, essays, and more, Carmen Boullosa has thrilled readers and critics alike with her wide-ranging talents. Her work has been acclaimed as "playful," "heartstopping," and "dazzling" and has been translated from Spanish into English, Italian, French, Dutch, and German, among other languages.

Please join the Hispanic Division and the Hispanic Cultural Society for a reading and discussion on March 25 at noon in the Mary Pickford Theater of the Library of Congress (Madison Building, 3rd Floor). A book sale and signing will follow. This event is free and open to the public. Contact: cgom@loc.gov
