Exploring other worlds with Harrisonburg author Sofia Samatar

Sofia Samatar
Sofia Samatar

Award winning Harrisonburg author Sofia Samatar often sets her stories in other worlds. In her latest book, The Practice, the Horizon and the Chain, a science fiction novella set in a university attached to a prison in space, Samatar deals with issues concerning access and diversity in higher education, but through the veil of a space adventure. Sofia Samatar is our guest for Books & Brews on Tuesday, April 9, 2024 in Harrisonburg. WMRA’s Chris Boros asked Sofia – why science fiction?

Chris Boros is WMRA’s Program Director and local host from 10am-4pm Monday-Friday.
