Join Wayne State University Press as we celebrate the release of Kin: Practically True Stories, by WSU Professor and author V Efua Prince - on Thursday, October 17th, at 6 pm at the Scarab Club. 

About the book:

A dynamic kaleidoscope of story that honors the work of women.

Kin is a story and a celebration of Black womanhood, of resistance, and of perseverance—while simultaneously an indictment of American history. Kin is a tree—alive in places, broken in others—that offers shelter for women seeking respite in the midst of family-making. This tree depicts family grafted together by blood, law, or choice; its stories are voiced through blues-infused poetry, one-act plays, oral history, and reportage that are combined to form an orchestra of Black history and re-memory.

Enjoy a book talk by the author, followed by a book signing (books provided by sale by Source Booksellers).
