A Bay Area Guide to Litquake and Beyond

Every October, readers and writers gather to hear work in fiction and poetry at Litquake, the largest nine-day literary festival on the West Coast. During this 6-week course, learn about the authors participating at the festival, including Peter Orner, Joshua Mohr, Daniel Alarcón, Yiyun Li and others. Gain a deeper understanding of the work through weekly reading assignments and class discussions. You also have a chance to meet some Litquake authors in the classroom, both before and after the festival.
