Wildfruit Projects + MaTovu presents: Author Event with Tegan Nia Swanson


  • MaTovu 4200 Blaine Avenue St. Louis, MO, 63110 United States (map)

Join visiting author and advocate Tegan Nia Swanson for her debut book tour of Things We Found When the Water Went Down, a book that Kirkus Reviews calls “Brash, atmospheric…earthy and strange – an inventive and beguiling debut.” 

Part eco-Nordic noir, part magical realist examination of power, identity, and myth, Things We Found When the Water Went Down is a story that asks us to explore what it means to heal—or not—after violence.

EVENT IS FREE to ALL!
($15 suggested donation at the door and books available for purchase at event)
