Gargoyle Magazine published my essay “A Condensed Timeline of My Life Plotted through My Relationships with Libraries” on July 1, 2024. Below is an excerpt from the piece, and I honestly hope this essay inspires many people to learn more about the movie Library Wars and to watch it! Here’s an excerpt…
“Books have encouraged revolutions but, on a smaller scale, books have also served to open the world to people who cannot travel. I never traveled outside of the United States until I was 29 years old. But thanks to my library card, I had read stories from around the world. I read about other cultures and histories. I learned that there was a world outside of the small town in which I was raised. I learned that there were other religions. Other beliefs. Other ways of living.”
