SUMMARY:Navigating Hallowed Ground with David Grann
DESCRIPTION:David Grann is an author and journalist whose bestselling titles include The Lost City of Z: A Tale of Deadly Obsession (2009)\, Killers of the Flower Moon: The Osage Murders and the Birth of the FBI (2017)\, and The Wager: A Tale of Shipwreck\, Mutiny and Murder (2023). Grann’s work navigates bizarre\, often violent historical episodes\, to which Grann lends an immediacy that freshens their intrigue while considering them within their respective historical contexts. \nIn Grann’s most recent book\, The Wager\, the wreck of a British warship off the coast of Patagonia in the 1740s’ is retold by two different groups of survivors: one group is hailed as heroes who survived against the odds\, while the other finds themselves painted as conniving mutineers. Much like Killers of the Flower Moon\, where a then-developing FBI uncovers a vast conspiracy in what feels to the reader like “real time\,” The Wager sees Grann utilize his historic vantage point to render a complex and gripping narrative\, which pits the conventions of the past against those of the present to uncover the merits and blindsides of each. \nModerator\nDaniel Zalewski\, Executive Editor of The New Yorker\, will join David Grann in conversation. A longtime editor and writer for the magazine\, Zalewski has worked closely with many of today’s leading nonfiction authors\, including Grann\, helping shape some of the most compelling long-form journalism of the past two decades. \nRegister for this free online event today. \nZoom registration approvals for this event will close at 5:00 p.m. on the day of the event. Registrations received after this deadline will stay pending and will be processed after the live event\, ensuring that those who missed the cutoff will still receive the event recording. Attendance is limited to patrons of participating ILP member libraries; registrations from non-member library patrons will be declined. \nOnce you submit your registration\, please allow two business days for the host to approve it. You will then receive an automated confirmation email from Zoom with the link to join. An email reminder with the link to join will also be sent to registered attendees one week\, one day\, and one hour before the event. \nASL interpreting and closed captioning are now available for all ILP Season 6 events—no requests needed. Event recording will be accessible to registered attendees for a limited time\, typically up to 30 days\, in accordance with contractual agreements with the speaker.
