The Public Lecture, sponsored by Dollar General and Carol & Bobby Frist, is a highlight of the Nashville Public Library Literary Award Weekend. This event allows the community to hear from and celebrate this year’s Literary Award winner and Pulitzer Prize-winning author: Louise Erdrich.
Louise Erdrich, a member of the Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa, is the author of many novels as well as volumes of poetry, children’s books, and a memoir of early motherhood. Her novel The Round House won the National Book Award for Fiction and The Night Watchman won the Pulitzer Prize. Love Medicine and LaRose received the National Book Critics Circle Award for Fiction. Her most recent book, The Sentence, has been nominated for the Women’s Prize.
Established in 2004, the Nashville Public Library Literary Award recognizes distinguished authors for their illustrious contributions to the world of books, literacy, and reading. Each year, an outstanding individual from the literary community is invited to Nashville for a weekend-long celebration to honor their achievements while simultaneously raising funds to support NPL and its essential education and literacy programs and resources. The free Public Lecture offers the opportunity for the entire community to come together in celebration.
