The Big Generous Brain of Madeline Miller
Wordfest presented the Big Generous Brain of Madeline Miller as a livestream on August 19, 2021, as part of its Imagine On Air online series. Miller’s award-winning The Song of Achilles made the international bestseller lists a decade after it was published, proving that a great book is timeless. This special one-hour conversation was hosted by Wordfest’s Creative Ringleader Shelley Youngblut.
