"Wunderkind: Carson McCullers"

Southeastern premiere of acclaimed Documentary

We are pleased to present the Southeastern Premiere of this new documentary by famed German director Claudia Müller about Columbus' most famous literary celebrity Carson McCullers.

In this illuminating portrait, we examine how Columbus, GA served as an inspiration and foundation for McCullers’ novels whose heroes and heroines were those otherwise overlooked by society (and other artists). After the screening, director Müller is expected to join us remotely from Germany to answer audience questions.

Admission is free, and no tickets or reservations are required.

This event is presented as part of WHERE WE LIVE: NEA Big Read Columbus. The NEA Big Read is a program of the National Endowment for the Arts in partnership with Arts Midwest. WHERE WE LIVE: NEA Big Read Columbus is presented by the Chattahoochee Valley Libraries and the Carson McCullers Center for Writers and Musicians at Columbus State University.
