HAP Live Interview and Book Club Presentation with Award-Winning Author Yvette Manessis Corporon

We are excited to announce and invite you to our upcoming Greek Elder Care Network Book Club event in collaboration with the Hellenic American Project (HAP) and the Greek American Writers Guild. The event will feature internationally bestselling author and Emmy Award-winning producer Yvette Manessis Corporon!

Mark your calendars for Saturday, November 16th, for a one-of-a-kind evening at the THESPIS Theater in Astoria, where Yvette will present her latest novel, Daughter of Ruins.

Yvette Manessis Corporon, a first-generation Greek American, draws deeply from her family's roots in her writing. Her connection to Greece adds a rich authenticity to her work. Daughter of Ruins takes readers on a journey through time, weaving together the lives of a contemporary Greek American woman and her ancestors on the island of Corfu. The novel explores themes of love, sacrifice, family, turmoil, and resilience. It is a deeply moving story that follows three women struggling to control their destinies, fighting to become the women they were meant to be.

The event will kick off with a book signing at 5:00 PM, followed by a live interview at 5:30 PM, where Dr. Nicholas Alexiou, founder of the Hellenic-American Project (HAP) and Professor of Sociology at Queens College, will interview Yvette in front of a live audience. This interview is part of Professor Alexiou's ongoing research, documenting the Greek American experience preserving Greek American history. Yvette will share her inspiring journey as a journalist, an Emmy-winning producer, and an accomplished author, making this a must-attend event!
