| Details | CT Author, Anya Liftig will join us to discuss her recently published memoir Holler Rat. Liftig grew up with a foot in two very different worlds: While her mother’s upbringing was so rural that the other kids called her “holler rat,” her father came from a comfortable, upper-middle-class Jewish family. Liftig spent school years in affluent Connecticut and summers in the holler. Shaped by the experience, she would go on to win a scholarship to Yale and become an acclaimed artist, using provocative performances to explore the contradictions and unanswered questions of her life. But when the world Liftig was building for herself shattered, she was forced to reconcilewhere she’d come from with who she was and who she wanted to be. Copies of the book will be available for purchase and signing. |
