Bernard Radfar & William T. Vollmann

  • to This is a past program

Bernard Radfar is the author of Insincerely Yours ... Letters from a Prankster and Mecca Pimp: A Novel of Love and Human Trafficking. He is a PEN USA Literary Award Judge and a Huffington Post contributor. William T. Vollmann is the author of Europe Central, Rising Up and Rising Down, and, most recently, The Book of Dolores, a self-portrait of the author’s female alter ego. This discussion includes the forbidden reaches of eros, identity, and the fictions we live by.

All Hammer public programs are free and made possible by a major gift from the Dream Fund at UCLA.

Generous support is also provided by Susan Bay Nimoy and Leonard Nimoy, the Simms/Mann Family Foundation, The Brotman Foundation of California, Good Works Foundation and Laura Donnelley, and all Hammer members.
