About

City Lights and Heyday Books celebrate the publication of The Last Human Bear – By Greg Sarris – Published by Heyday Books – This event will take place in Kerouac Alley, between City Lights and Vesuvio Cafe. It is free to the public. Seating is limited and on a first-come, first-serve basis.

SF/Arts Curator Insight

The grand sweep of American literature contains a distinct gap when it comes to First Peoples, making “The Last Human Bear,” Greg Sarris’ first novel in 28 years, long overdue. Previously the author of “The Forgetters” (2024), “Grand Avenue” (1994), and “Watermelon Nights” (1998), Sarris is also a tribal leader currently serving his seventeenth term as Chairman of the Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria. He appears in conversation with ZYZZYVA editor Oscar Villalon.
