Acclaimed author of “World of Wonders” Aimee Nezhukumatathil will be visiting Central Library on Wed., Sept. 21 from 7-9 p.m. to discuss her book of nature essays. She’ll be in conversation with Adrian Matejka — a former Indiana poet laureate + the first Black editor of Poetry magazine.

The free public event is part of Indiana Humanities “INconversation” series, which aims to engage a group of people for insightful conversations with thought leaders from around the country. Bring your questions, because the talk is highly participatory. Register for the event.

Haven’t read the book yet? You can order it online + it will also be for sale at the talk. Either way, be sure to get it signed by the author before you leave.
