Melissa Mogollon – Oye: A Novel

July 16 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

Iowa Writers’ Workshop alum Melissa Mogollon will read from her coming of age comedy,ย Oye: A Novel. ย โ€œFunny and smart,ย Oyeย grapples with the messy inheritance of intergenerational trauma and how it manifests in the everyday conversations with the peopleย we love. Mogollonย has written a beautifulย book.โ€โ€”Claire Jimenezย ย โ€œHeartbreaking and humorous, mature and mischievous,ย Oyeย feels like home in delicious and furious ways. Melissa Mogollon did not come to play.โ€โ€”Kiley Reid

Melissa Mogollonย holds an MFA in fiction from the Iowa Writersโ€™ Workshop and a BA from the George Washington University. Originally from Colombia and raised in Florida, she now teaches at a boarding school in Rhode Island, where she lives with her partner and dog.ย
