Kærlighed til alle tider - oplev Hanya Yanagihara
Hanya Yanagihara blev kendt verden over for bestselleren Et lille liv, og nu er hun tilbage med den anmelderroste roman Til paradis. Kærlighed, ensomhed, race og den amerikanske drøm om det ideelle liv er bare nogle af de temaer, Yanagihara kredser om, når hun tegner et portræt af Amerika i en parallel verden, hvor man angiveligt burde kunne gifte sig med den, man vil. Igennem romanen følger læseren tre karakterer: David Bingham i 1893, som står over for at skulle giftes med den ældre Charles, men forelsker sig i den fattige musiklærer; David i 1993, som bor i New York, hvor homoseksuelle lever i frygt, mens AIDS-epidemien raser; og Charlie i 2093, der lever et trygt liv med sin mand, mens hun efterhånden finder ud af, at der findes andre måder at leve på.
Til arrangementet vil Yanagihara fortælle om Til paradis i samtale med redaktør for Bøger, Weekendavisens litteratursektion David Turner. Arrangementet foregår på engelsk, og efterfølgende er der mulighed for signering.
