You Can't Eat the Scenery: The Legacy of Sanora Babb and the Dust Bowl
You Can't Eat the Scenery: The Legacy of Sanora Babb and the Dust Bowl
In 1939, when John Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath was published, it became an instant bestseller and a prevailing narrative in the nation's collective imagination of the era. But it also stopped the publication of another important novel, silencing a gifted writer who was more intimately connected to the true experiences of Dust Bowl migrants.
Join us at 101 Archer for an event with celebrated biographer Iris Jamahl Dunkle, whose latest project details the life and legacy of Sanora Babb. Magic City Books will be selling copies of her book on site. Book signing to follow!
