Horse: A Conversation with Geraldine Brooks & Sarah Maslin Nir at SPAC

SARATOGA SPRINGS — Saratoga Performing Arts Center announces that its LiteraryArts@SPAC initiative will continue with “Horse: A Conversation with Geraldine Brooks & Sarah Maslin Nir” at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 21 at The Pines@SPAC facility. 

Pulitzer Prize finalist, avid equestrian, and author of “Horse Crazy’ Sarah Maslin Nir will return to SPAC to lead a conversation with Pulitzer Prize winner and author Geraldine Brooks about her new book, “Horse,” a sweeping story of spirit, obsession, and injustice across American history. 

Based on the true story of the record-breaking thoroughbred, Lexington, who became America’s greatest stud sire, “Horse” has been called a gripping, multi-layered novel of art and science, love and obsession, and our unfinished reckoning with racism. 

“Horse: A Conversation with Geraldine Brooks & Sarah Maslin Nir” is part of SPAC’s growing LiteraryArts@SPAC initiative. Additional events planned for the fall will be announced at a later date. 

“Horse: A Conversation with Geraldine Brooks & Sarah Maslin Nir” is free to attend; however, seating is limited. Visit spac.org to register.
