A virtual lecture by author Madeline Miller, whose first novel, “The Song of Achilles,” was awarded the 2012 Orange Prize for Fiction and was a New York Times bestseller. Her second novel, “Circe,” was an instant No. 1 New York Times bestseller. Before she was a novelist, Miller earned her BA and MA in classics from Brown University, and she taught and tutored Latin, Greek, and Shakespeare to high school students for more than 15 years. Her novels have been translated into over 25 languages, and her essays have appeared in the Guardian, The Wall Street Journal, Lapham’s Quarterly, and on NPR.
This event is the 2022 Ida Wise East Memorial Lecture.
