Lauren Markham & Joshua Jelly-Schapiro
Lauren Markham returns to Greenlight to launch her speculative essay on language in the face of climate catastrophe: Immemorial. In a dazzling synthesis of reporting, memoir, and essay, Markham reflects on the design and function of memorials, from the traditional to the speculative and offers, what Kirkus star reviews as, "urgent, heartfelt, and lyrical reflections... an intimate meditation on the climate crisis.” Markham reads from the book before a brief discussion with fellow author Joshua Jelly-Schapiro (Names of New York), followed by an audience Q&A and signing.
