Anna Badkhen

Co-presented by Tulsa Artist Fellowship

Please join us for an evening of books and music as we celebrate Senegalese culture and the release of Anna Badkhen’s new book, FISHERMAN’S BLUES.

An intimate account of life in a West African fishing village, tugged by currents ancient and modern, and dependent on an ocean that is being radically transformed.

“A masterpiece. I don’t think I’ve ever seen the natural world captured so authentically. Badkhen makes it immediate, vivid, vital–sacred, actually. She is digging down into the truth of human experience on the planet at this time, and the book resonates with all our time on the planet.” -Ben Fountain
