Palo Alto College hosts renowned author Ana Castillo for a community talk/plática about the importance of maintaining and honoring our cultural identity through storytelling. The event will begin with a reception at 6 p.m. and end with a book signing following the talk.

As one of the best-known Mexican-American writers working today, Dr. Ana Castillo’s work focuses on the complexities of Xicanx identity while transcending the boundaries of politics, class, and gender. Castillo’s prose blends elements of oral history and established literary tradition with innovation and experimentation. Castillo has earned numerous awards for her writing and is best known for her novel So Far From God.
