Hillyer College Associate Professor Joyce Ashuntantang Leads Discussion With World-Renowned Author

October 31, 2019
Submitted By: Mary Ingarra

Last week, Hillyer College Associate Professor of English Joyce Ashuntantang moderated a conversation with world-famous author Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, as part of the West Hartford READS initiative. 

All 600 tickets for the event held at Louise Duffy School sold out within an hour, making it the highest attended event in the library's history.

West Hartford READS! is a town-wide initiative that encourages people to read the works of one notable author, and culminates each year with the author visiting the town in October. 

Photos of the event can be viewed on the Hillyer College Facebook page.
