BC Libraries Present: Indigenous Fiction Virtual Series

For the second year in a row, BC’s public libraries are hosting a virtual author series to bring new insights and voices to library users in every corner of British Columbia. For this series, the topic is Indigenous Fiction.


Following the success of her groundbreaking memoir A Mind Spread Out on the Ground, Alicia Elliot’s new novel And Then She Fell has quickly become an award-winning national bestseller.

It’s a story about Native life, motherhood, and mental health that follows a young Mohawk woman who discovers that the picture-perfect life she always hoped for may have horrifying consequences.

For the first event of this fall lineup, join Alicia Elliott in conversation with award-winning author Carleigh Baker.

All events are hosted on the BC Libraries Present Crowdcast channel:crowdcast.io/@bclibraries-present

BC Libraries Present is a project of BC’s public library federations with the generous financial support of the Province of British Columbia through the Ministry of Municipal Affairs.
