A Memoir of Place: Sue Eisenfeld and Shenandoah National Park

AFP

shenandoahWhen and how does a place become the subject of a memoir? Author Sue Eisenfeld will discuss with C-ville Weekly writer Elizabeth Derby how a form of writing that is usually focused on the author’s personal experience can expand to encompass place and history. Eisenfeld’s hikes in the Shenandoah National Park over decades compelled her to investigate and write about the history of the creation of the park in the context of her experiences of it.

The event is scheduled for Thursday, May 28, 7 p.m. Free and open to the public. WriterHouse, 508 Dale Avenue, Charlottesville, VA (behind the Preston Avenue Bodo’s),www.writerhouse.org434-296-1922[email protected]

WriterHouse is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.
