Lance Olsen in Conversation With David Naimon
February 16, 2020 @ 7:30 pm - 8:30 pm
FreeSet on a single day in 1927, Lance Olsen’s My Red Heaven (Dzanc) imagines a host of characters – some historic, some invented – crossing paths on the streets of Berlin. Drawing inspiration from Otto Freundlich’s painting by the same name, My Red Heaven explores a complex moment in history: the rise of deadly populism at a time when everything seemed possible and the future unimaginable. Olsen will be joined in conversation by David Naimon, host of the Between the Covers podcast.
