SUMMARY:Wilton Reads: Author Talk with Cristina Henriquez - The Great Divide
DESCRIPTION:Wilton Reads 2024 culminates with Wilton Library‘s author talk event featuring Cristina Henriquez\, acclaimed author of The Great Divide. \nThe Great Divide is a fascinating historical novel about the Panama Canal construction\, one of the greatest historical engineering feats. It importantly explores laborers\, locals\, activists\, doctors\, scientists\, and others interwoven stories. They are clearly the diverse unsung heroes who lived and worked alongside the massive project.

It was longlisted for the Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Fiction and was a finalist for the Dayton Literary Peace Prize. \nHenriquez is also the author of The World in Half and Come Together\, Fall Apart: A Novella and Stories. She additionally earned the Alfredo Cisneros Del Moral Foundation Award\, a grant by Sandra Cisneros honoring her father. Obtaining her undergraduate degree from Northwestern University and graduating from the Iowa Writers’ Workshop\, Henriquez now lives in Illinois. \nWiltonian Joanna Ecke will interview Henriquez. Ecke taught public high school English for many years and leads several literary discussion groups at Wilton Library. \nHenriquez will receive the Grodin Family Fine Writers Award. \nThis program will be recorded and available for viewing for 30 days after the event. \nElm Street Books will sell copies and Henriquez will sign after the presentation.
