Kingston WritersFest - Truth Lives in Language: Kim Echlin, Eric Friesen

Event Description

How can literature resist silencing and repression in an increasingly chaotic world? Join award-winning novelist Kim Echlin discussing her new essay collection, Tell Others: Storytelling for a World in Turmoil. Drawing from her global lived experiences—including teaching in post-revolutionary China and researching war crimes in the former Yugoslavia—Echlin examines how storytelling turns outrage into understanding and how truth and imagination measure our lives against darkness.
