Oct 27: Roxane Gay, Tracy Lynne Oliver & Rebecca Kirby at Powell's Books


The Sacrifice of Darkness
Tuesday, October 27 @ 6pm (PT)
In The Sacrifice of Darkness (Archaia), Roxane Gay, Tracy Lynne Oliver, and Rebecca Kirby adapt Gay's New York Times bestselling short story, "We Are the Sacrifice of Darkness," as a full-length graphic novel, expanding and further developing the unforgettable world where the sun no longer shines. "When I was a young girl, my husband's father flew an air machine into the sun. Since then, the days have been dark, the nights bright." Follow one woman's powerful journey through this new landscape as she discovers love, family, and the true light in a world seemingly robbed of any. As she challenges notions of identity, guilt, and survival, she'll find that no matter the darkness, there remains sources of hope that can pierce the veil.
