SUMMARY:St. Paul - Minnesota Writers Off the Page: Marcie Rendon
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a special evening with acclaimed author\, poet\, and playwright\, Marcie Rendon\, as she delves into her latest book\, “Where They Last Saw Her” (Bantam Books\, 2024). Marcie will be in conversation with Lisa Skjefte\, Deputy Director at MIGIZI. Their conversation will explore crime novels\, humor\, resilience\, and what it means to be an Indigenous woman in Minnesota today. \nFollowing the discussion\, audience members are invited to participate in a Q&A session\, enjoy light refreshments\, and have further informal conversation with the featured speakers. Copies of “Where They Last Saw Her\,” along with other titles by Marcie Rendon\, will be available for purchase from Moon Palace Books at the event and the evening will finish with a book signing. \nThis event is presented in partnership with MIGIZI\, which supports the development of American Indian youth through academic\, cultural\, and career-building programs\, and is part of the Minnesota Writers Off the Page series\, bringing the inspirational voices of Minnesota’s authors directly to readers. While the event is free\, registration is required to reserve your spot. Don’t miss this opportunity to connect with one of Minnesota’s most compelling voices. \nAbout the Book\nThings are different now for Quill than when she was a lonely girl. Her friends Punk and Gaylyn are two women who don’t know what it means to quit; her loving husband\, Crow\, and their two beautiful children challenge her to be better every day. So when she hears a second woman has been stolen\, she is determined to do something about it—starting with investigating the group of men working the pipeline construction just north of their homes. \nAs Quill closes in on the truth about the missing women\, someone else disappears. In her quest to find justice for all of the women of the reservation\, she is confronted with the hard truths of their home and the people who purport to serve them. When will she stop losing neighbors\, friends\, family? As Quill puts everything on the line to make a difference\, the novel asks searing questions about bystander culture\, the reverberations of even one act of crime\, and the long-lasting trauma of being considered invisible.
