Please join freelance book critics Tope Folarin, Zoe Hu, and Hillary Kelly, as well as The Nation’s associate literary editor Kevin Lozano, for a panel discussion about why the book criticism landscape has shrunk—and how to navigate it.. Moderated by NBCC board member Adam Dalva, the panel will discuss the ongoing shift from substantive criticism to listicles and previews; why opportunities for freelance critics to get published and paid appropriately are diminishing, and how we might reassert the importance of book criticism and help it flourish in the future.  This event is co-sponsored by the National Book Critics Circle and the Freelance Solidarity Project, a division of the National Writers Union.
