Exciting news from Dariel Suarez (Fiction 2012): One of Dariel’s stories, “Marching Men,” is being taught at Brown University this semester through the Latina/o Studies Department! Dariel wrote and workshopped “Marching Men” in Leslie Epstein’s class here at BU. The story was published in Prairie Schooner‘s summer 2014 issue.
In addition, Dariel has been invited to speak at Brown by faculty in the American and Ethnic Studies Department. He’ll be visiting on March 1 to co-teach a class on his story, give a public reading, and have dinner with faculty and students.
Congratulations, Dariel! What an honor. We wish you the best at Brown!
