SUMMARY:Local Authors: Avgi Saketopoulou, Kerri Schlottman, Kathleen Fern Suess
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for an evening highlighting three local authors and their recently published works. Each author will have a table for meet-and-greets, book signings, and conversation with friends, family, fans, and potential new readers. This month’s event features Avgi Saketopoulou, Kerri Schlotmann and Kathleen Fern Seuss.\nRSVPs are not required, but they are appreciated. (They help us keep in touch in case of changes, and let us know how many people to expect.) Fans are welcome to bring books from home to have signed, or to purchase books here. Refreshments and beverages are also available for purchase throughout the event. Please, no outside food or drink.\nAbout the authors and their books:\nAvgi Saketopoulou is a faculty member at the NYU Postdoctoral Program in Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis. Her book, Sexuality Beyond Consent, makes a counter-intuitive claim: that trauma discourse, especially when it comes to to racial and sexual trauma, is stalled by our fixation on preventing or healing injury. Saketopoulou offers a robust alternative, conjugated through the perversity of queer desire, racial difference, and aesthetic experience.\nKerri Schlottman is the author of Tell Me One Thing from Regal House Publishing. Tell Me One Thing is a portrait of two Americas, examining power, privilege, and the sacrifices one is willing to make to succeed as it tells the story of a provocative photograph, the struggling artist who takes it, and its young and troubled subject. Traveling through the 1980s to present day, Tell Me One Thing delves into New York City’s free-for-all grittiness while exposing a neglected slice of the rural rust belt.\nKathleen Fern Suess is a writer, visual artist, poet, and amateur photographer. Her latest book, Tablecloth Nights explores the intimate complexities of an Irish Catholic upbringing stained by alcoholism and secrets. Suess embraces the challenge and embarks on a journey of self-discovery in the face of family members denials and silence.\n
