California Uncovered Stories for the 21st Century

As the centerpiece of the California Stories Uncovered program of the California Council for the Humanities, this literary anthology blends the fresh new voices of this state with established California writers like Joan Didion and John Steinbeck. The program, which promotes reading and writing about California's changing face among Californians of all ages, launches in April 2005 and will feature widely promoted discussion groups, school programs, and author events statewide. In poems, excerpts from novels, interviews, stories, and personal essays, the writers found in this anthology stretch the boundaries of genre to create a startling portrait of the state. California Uncovered is a sincere look at the puzzles and paradoxes that make California what it is. California Uncovered is an attempt to draw us all together in the common cause of understanding.Divakaruni, Chitra Banerjee is the author of 'California Uncovered Stories for the 21st Century', published 2004 under ISBN 9781890771973 and ISBN 189077197X.
