Dear Friend,

We are so exited to announce that  on  September 13th at 7 PM ET, we'll be hosting a discussion with global literary icon Isabel Allende on her new book The Wind Knows My Name with Executive Director Gladis Molina Alt.

The story weaves together past and present to trace the effects of war and immigration on one child in Europe in 1938 and another in the United States in 2019, each who experience the journey of migrating alone and the trauma of being separated from family.

This is a FREE virtual event! While registration is required, donations are welcome. You can also purchase a signed copy of The Wind Knows My Name exclusively from The Book Stall and 20% will be donated to the Young Center.
