CKUA listeners around the world know Monica Miller was passionate about music. However, she was just as passionate about literature, particularly works by female authors. The annual Monica Miller Memorial Lecture features a prominent female writer, with the aim of amplifying women’s voices in literature.
We’ll celebrate the legacy of beloved CKUA host Monica Miller with a lecture by acclaimed Canadian author Lisa Moore, whose extensive body of work spans fiction, creative non-fiction, opera and other forms of storytelling. Following the lecture, she’ll engage in an on-stage conversation with award-winning author Jacqueline Baker.
Lisa Moore has written three collections of short stories, Degrees of Nakedness, Open, and Something for Everyone, and five novels, Alligator, February, Caught, Flannery, and This Is How We Love, and has co-written, with Jack Whalen, the creative non-fiction book, Invisible Prisons.
