6:30 pm: An Evening with Writer Kate Anger


September 8, 2022

On Thursday, September 8, at 7:00 PM, join Inlandia Institute and UCR Arts for a very special evening with author and playwright Kate Anger. Ms. Anger will read from her debut novel, The Shinnery, followed by a conversation with Inlandia executive director Cati Porter about all things Shinnery and beyond. Enjoy live music by Old Brown Shoe, a vintage country music band from Riverside, starting at 6:30.

Publishers Weekly calls The Shinnery “…a riveting narrative richly enhanced by questions of morality, justice, and revenge. Historical fiction fans will be delighted.” A story of coming-of-age, betrayal, and revenge, The Shinnery is inspired by the author’s family history and a trial that shook the region.
