Join E.B. Bartels for a presentation on a narrative nonfiction book about loving and losing animals. The book talk will take us from Massachusetts to Japan, from ancient Egypt to the modern era, in search of how we honor pets. She describes veterinarians, archaeologists, ministers, and more. Her work has appeared in Salon, Slate, WBUR, LitHub, Catapult, Electric Literature, The Rumpus, and The Millions, among others. Ms. Bartels has a BA from Wellesley College and an MFA from Columbia University.
