About this Event

Virtual Event View stream information Free Event

Join us for an evening with Ari Tison, author of the 2024 Américas Award Winner, Saints of the Household. Participants will have the opportunity to discuss the book with the author and consider classroom applications. 

Saints of the Household is a haunting contemporary YA about an act of violence in a small-town–beautifully told by a debut Indigenous Costa Rican-American writer–that will take your breath away.

Told in alternating points of view using vignettes and poems, debut author Ari Tison crafts an emotional, slow-burning drama about brotherhood, abuse, recovery, and doing the right thing.
