Spinning: Amy Hoffman reads from her memoir Lies about My Family Wellesley Centers for Women

Amy Hoffman, MFA, editor of Women’s Review of Books, reads an excerpt from her forthcoming memoir, Lies About My Family. The book deals with issues of continuity and discontinuity between generations, immigration, and family bonds. Hoffman is the author of two other books, Hospital Time, a memoir about taking care of friends with AIDS, and An Army of Ex-Lovers, a memoir about Boston’s Gay Community News and the lesbian and gay movement of the late 1970s.

The lunchtime seminar series at the Wellesley Centers for Women offers residents and visitors to the Greater Boston Area the opportunity to hear in-person about the work by WCW researchers and program staff.
