Peter Godwin with Autumn Phillips - Exit Wounds
Fri, Nov 14 at 5pm
Award-winning writer and former President of PEN America, Peter Godwin discusses his stunning memoir Exit Wounds—a meditation on grief, belonging, and the relationships and places that shaped his life. Raised in Zimbabwe, Godwin has spent his life missing his African childhood. With generations of history behind him, he lyrically brings us into the spaces which make us question and suffer, shows us how we can heal our own scars, and celebrate the lives we have among family and friends.
Godwin is in conversation with Autumn Phillips—journalist, writer, traveller, and the former Editor-in-Chief of the Post and Courier.
