In his award-winning writing, Tobias Wolff explores the lives of average men and their existential struggles. His stories, which span from the Pacific Northwest of Wolff's childhood (This Boy's Life) to Fort Bragg during the Vietnam War (The Barracks Thief), have garnered critical praise for their sparse, clear narrative voice. This evening, Wolff chats with Vendela Vida, San Francisco novelist and co-founder of 826 Valencia, whose own books tackle the theme of rites of passage among American women.
