SUMMARY:Craft Talk: Celeste Mohammed
DESCRIPTION:Writers Flock presents a virtual event celebrating the work of Celeste Mohammed (Fiction\, June 2016)\, Trinidadian author of novel-in-stories\, Pleasantview\, winner of the 2022 OCM Bocas Prize for Caribbean Literature and the American CLMP Firecracker Award for Fiction in 2022. Join Strange Birds host and Bahamian-born writer Christi Cartwright in an hour-long conversation and readings with Celeste\, followed by an audience Q&A. Celeste discusses her writing process\, choice to write dialogue in patois and writing against stereotypes. \n\n\n\nA trained lawyer\, Celeste graduated from Lesley University\, Cambridge\, Massachusetts\, with an MFA in Creative Writing (Fiction). She was born and still lives in Trinidad. Much of her work seeks to dispel myths about island-life and island-people. In Pleasantview\, set during election season\, Celeste rips through a cacophony of Trinidad’s entrenched political\, racial\, and class alliances with all the musicality and resonance of Caribbean creole.  \n\n\n\nThis event will take place online via Zoom directly after the Opening Address. Places are limited.
