 Get Lit!: Lidia Yuknavitch The readings will be followed by a brief Q&A and the author will be available to sign books in the lobby afterward. Books will be available for sale on site. Lidia Yuknavitch writes to give voice to the maligned and the silenced. Her novel Dora: A Headcase reimagines the world of psychotherapy through teenage heroine Ida, whose alter ego is named Dora, who calls her therapist Siggy and is in love with her friend Obsidian. A philandering father, intimacy issues, and an experimental art film make this a true 21st century coming-of-age story. Yuknavitch is also known for her powerful memoir, The chronology of water, which explores addiction, abuse, and love, tracing the course of Yuknavitch’s life following the birth of her stillborn daughter. Yuknavitch is adept at exploring what it means to be human, drawing on her personal experience as well as creating complex, flawed, and fascinating characters.
