About the event
Join us for a talk with Michael Perry, whose stories explore the deep, often invisible threads that connect us to our neighbors. Through the lens of this year's Silicon Valley Reads theme, Bridges to Belonging, Perry discusses how humor and shared struggle build the foundations of a community.
Whether responding to emergencies in the small-town memoir Population: 485 or navigating the quirky chaos of faith in Jesus Cow, Perry illustrates that belonging isn't just about where you live—it's about ordinary lives and community.
