Zambreno and Cohen, both writers of genre-blending feminist books, will discuss writing, women and modernism. Zambreno’s book "Heroines" weaves together memoir and feminist literary scholarship, examining the minor roles to which women have been relegated in literary culture and criticism. In "All We Know," Lisa Cohen illuminates the lives of three forgotten women of the Modernist era, all part of a lesbian subculture and highly connected to the world of fashion, art, literature and culture in the 1920’s and 30’s.
