Join writer and actress Sonya Walger at the Los Angeles Festival of Books for 'Fictional Fathers and Family Sagas' — a discussion on the rich and varied representations of child-parent relationships in contemporary fiction. Walger, whose debut autobiographical novel Lion (NYRB 2025) narrates a chaotic upbringing with an eccentric father, is joined by Anthony Giardina, Andrew Porter, Mary Otis, and Adam Haslett—fellow novelists also grappling with parenthood, family, and the potential impossibility of ever fully understanding the people who raised us.
