Claire Kilroy takes readers deep inside the early days of motherhood. Exploring the clash of fierce love with a seismic shift in identity, Kilroy conjures the raw, tumultuous emotions of a new mother, as her marriage strains and she struggles with questions of equality, autonomy, and creativity. Soldier Sailor is a tale of boundless love and relentless battle, a bedtime story to a son, Sailor, recounting their early years together. Spending her days in baby groups, playgrounds, and supermarkets, Soldier doesn’t know who she is anymore. She hardly sees her husband, who has taken to working late most nights. A chance encounter with a former colleague feels like a lifeline to the person she used to be but can hardly remember. Tender and harrowing, Kilroy’s modern masterpiece portrays parenthood in all its agony and ardent joy. Claire Kilroy is the author of five novels including Soldier Sailor, All Summer, Tenderwire, and The Devil I Know. She was awarded the Rooney Prize in 2004 and has been shortlisted for many other prizes, including the Irish Novel of the Year and the Kerry Group Irish Fiction Award. She studied at Trinity College and lives in Dublin. Conor Creaney, Clinical Associate Professor in the Expository Writing Program, has written on novelistic form and on contemporary Irish poetry. He is Director of NYU’s Study Abroad program at Trinity College Dublin. Information Source: Glucksman Ireland House NYU | eventbrite

How and why was outdated racial content—and specifically blackface minstrelsy—not only permitted, but in fact allowed to thrive during the 1930s and 1940s despite the rigid motion picture censorship laws which were enforced during this time? In her new book Behind the Screen, published by Oxford University Press, Brynn Shiovitz introduces a new theory of covert minstrelsy, and illuminates Hollywood's practice of capitalizing on the Africanist aesthetic at the expense of Black lived experience. For this month’s Dance Historian Is In, Shiovitz discusses the dance artists whose names Hollywood omitted from the credits, including the Three Chocolateers trio, showing rare footage of one of its members Albert Gip Gibson, along with video clips of the Peters Sisters and Jeni Le Gon. For more than 10 years, The Dance Historian Is In at the Library for the Performing Arts has highlighted a diverse range of dancers and choreographers across history. This series began when archivist and historian David Vaughan started volunteering at the Jerome Robbins Dance Division. Vaughan began a monthly program showing his favorite dance films from the Division's extensive collection, through which he unearthed many treasures, and helped acquire even more. Vaughan continued the series until the end of his life. Today, we honor his memory and work by inviting dance historians from all over the world each month to carry on the tradition of highlighting dance history through the Dance Division's moving image collection. This event will take place online via Zoom as well as in person at The Library for the Performing Arts. *A streaming link will be emailed to everyone on the morning of the event for those wishing to attend virtually.

Please join us on Wednesday, September 25th at 8PM as we celebrate the release of the new and expanded fifteenth-anniversary edition of Zong! As told to the author by Setaey Adamu Boateng by m. nourbeSe philip, published by Graywolf Press. m. nourbeSe philip will be joined in conversation by Tonya Foster. Book sales will be managed by Books Are Magic. Zong! is a haunting lifeline between archive and memory, law and poetry. In November 1781, the captain of the slave ship Zong ordered that some 150 Africans be murdered by drowning so that the ship’s owners could collect insurance monies. Relying entirely on the words of the legal decision Gregson v. Gilbert—the only extant public document related to the massacre—Zong! tells the story that cannot be told yet must be told. Equal parts song, moan, shout, oath, ululation, curse, and chant, Zong! excavates the legal text. Memory, history, and law collide and metamorphose into the poetics of the fragment. Through the innovative use of fugal and counterpointed repetition, Zong! becomes an anti-narrative lament that stretches the boundaries of the poetic form, haunting the spaces of forgetting and mourning the forgotten. This fifteenth-anniversary edition features a new preface by the author and new essays by Saidiya Hartman and Katherine McKittrick. Widely regarded as one of the most influential and revered works of twenty-first-century literature, this new edition of Zong! will ensure this staggering work’s enduring legacy.

Every night, in the college’s ancient cemetery, five people cross paths as they work the late shift: a bartender, a rideshare driver, a hotel receptionist, the steward of the derelict church that looms over them, and the editor-in-chief of the college paper, always in search of a story.One dark October evening in the defunct churchyard, they find a hole that wasn’t there before. A fresh, open grave where no grave should be. But who dug it, and for whom?Before they go their separate ways, the gravedigger returns. As they trail him through the night, they realize he may be the key to a string of strange happenings around town that have made headlines for the last few weeks—and that they may be closer to the mystery than they thought.Atmospheric and eerie, with the ensemble cast her fans love and a delightfully familiar academic backdrop, Graveyard Shift is a modern Gothic tale in If We Were Villains author M. L. Rio’s inimitable style. Photo credit: M. L. Rio M. L. Rio holds an MA in Shakespeare studies from King’s College London and Shakespeare’s Globe and a PhD in English from the University of Maryland, College Park.

Join us for an afternoon of special tours and talks given by the curators of the newly opened exhibitions Alexandra Exter: The Stage Is a World and Volia: Ukrainian Modernism, and the creator of the new sculpture UKR|RUS. The Ukrainian Museum is excited to present a landmark exhibition celebrating the work of artist Alexandra Exter. Dubbed the “avant-garde Amazon,” Exter was a fixture in European artistic circles during the early twentieth century, traversing Kyiv, Odesa, Paris, and Venice. The exhibition, Alexandra Exter: The Stage Is a World, opens 27 September 2024 and runs through 19 January 2025. The first solo showcase of her work in North America, it offers a comprehensive exploration of Exter’s pioneering career from 1913 to 1934. Featuring 35 paintings and works on paper, the exhibition highlights her early abstractions and avant-garde theater contributions. A collaboration with Ukrainian and U.S. museums, as well as international private collectors, the exhibition delves into Exter’s influential contributions to theater and cinema, presenting both rare and iconic pieces beloved by art lovers around the world. The exhibition Volia: Ukrainian Modernism furthers the Ukrainian Museum’s decolonization efforts and positions prominent artists of the early twentieth century in the Ukrainian spotlight. Alexander Archipenko, David Burliuk, Alexander Bohomazov, Maria Syniakova, Vasyl Yermylov, Alexis Gritchenko, and others will be presented in the context of Ukrainian art and culture’s development, innovations, and traditions, which for decades were suppressed and appropriated by Russian imperialism. Volia in Ukrainian translates to freedom and also denotes willpower and a longing for freedom. This concept encapsulated the avant-garde movements in Ukraine, which are breaking free from Russian narratives and falsehoods more than ever before. UKR|RUS, a new sculptural work by artist and activist Molly Gochman, invites us to question the devastating human cost and destruction caused by aggressive imperialism, and to celebrate the resilience of Ukrainians, their rich cultural history, and the future that so many are fighting to defend. Taking the shape of the Ukraine-Russian border as it is defined by Ukraine and recognized by international law, the work draws parallels between physical and metaphorical boundaries, explores the complex dynamics that exist around borders, and provides a space to center and reflect upon the ongoing struggle of Ukraine and its people. UKR|RUS underscores that borders are more than mere cartographic lines; they are tangible divisions that shape communities and lives. Information Source: The Ukrainian Museum | eventbrite
