We regret that Dagoberto Gilb will be unable to attend the scheduled reading on Thursday. Award winning author Barbara Renaud Gonzalez has generously agreed to take his place. She will be accompanied by STC music instructor Jaime Garcia.
Ms. Renaud Gonzalez will be talking about her book Golondrina, why did you leave me? and her other writings. The novel Golondrina, why did you leave me? is part of the Chicana Matters Series from the University of Texas Press. Scholar Irma Mayorga has said that her writing “triumphs even more so due to her deft, exhilarating, and virtuosic command of written language.”
She will be speaking at the same schedule date and time – February 23rd at 5:30 pm in the Pecan Campus Rainbow Room.
Below is a link to the first chapter of the book:
