Book Talk & Conversation with the Novelist Sameer Pandya

Chair and Associate Professor of Asian American Studies, UC Santa Barbara

Professor Pandya will be speaking about this new novel, Our Beautiful Boys (2025), which follows the story of three families–one Asian American, one Latino, and one white–to explore the difficulties of raising teenagers in a society that values violent masculinity.

Pandya’s book has received glowing reviews from several major outlets including the New York Times and the Guardian. For a review of the book written from an Asian Americanist perspective, please take a look at the review in Pop Matters.

It will be held on 11/17 (Monday) in Convocation Hall, 5-6pm. Free parking in the Peavine Deck after 4pm!
