Program Description

Description

Join us for this special One Maryland One Book virtual author tour stop! This year's book selection is The Book of Delights by Ross Gay. The Book of Delights is a collection of lyrical essays. Gay wrote one essay per day over a tumultuous year and took the time to find “delights” in his everyday life. The essays range in topic from the beauties in nature to what it is to be a black man in America. Readers can look to Gay’s collection as a guide to finding their own daily “delights.” Ross Gay will be interviewed by Ted Zaleski.

All attendees should register in advance at https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_BjYvAqFJQVyVXpMwXgAY3Q.
