Infographic titled Los Angeles Times Festival of Books. It includes the covers of My Chicano Heart and How to Date a Flying Mexican by Daniel A. Olivas. The text reads: A Slice of Life: A Closer Look at the Short Story; Daniel A. Olivas, Robin Romm, Ben Shattuck, Christine Sneed, and Lena Valencia; Some might think that short stories can't hold as much emotional resonance as a novel or other longer piece of writing, but often the opposite is true. Short stories are like quick punches straight to the gut - surprising, direct, and powerful. Thankfully, they are also more enjoyable than punches. These writers investigate and celebrate the short story form, a genre that is perhaps even more relevant in this era of shorter attention spans, where so many forms of media constantly vie for our time and attention.; Sunday, April 27, 3:30-4:30 PM; Tickets required
Join Daniel A. Olivas at the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books on April 27!
