About This Event

Join us to celebrate the release of Emily Grandy's novel, Cupido, Cupido with Emily in conversation with Eiren Caffall.

Blending dry humor with emotional depth, Cupido Cupido navigates family estrangement, cultural inheritance, and the complex act of growing up through a Kentucky summer surrounded by a strange bird, perhaps back from extinction.
