Society, Secrets & Sexual Misconduct
a reading and discussion with
Aaron Hamburger & Patricia Smith
Aaron Hamburger’s and Patricia Smith’s novels deal with terrible secrets—the kind you hope no one will ever find out. Both Hamburger’s Nirvana Is Here and Smith’s The Year of the Needy Girlsexplore themes of LGBTQ characters navigating sexual misconduct cases with students—one directly accused and one dealing with a significant other being accused. The authors ask questions of how we, as a society, should face secrets and sexual misconduct in the #MeToo era.
