Literary Thursdays: Souvankham Thammavongsa, Author of “How to Pronounce Knife”
Souvankham Thammavongsa’s revelatory story collection honors characters who are struggling to make a living and find their bearings far from home, even as they do the necessary "grunt work of the world."
"How to Pronounce Knife" was a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award and the PEN Open Book Award, and the winner of the 2020 Giller Prize. It announces Thammavongsa as one of the most striking voices of her generation.
