Pradip Malde will join Michael Chovan-Dalton via Zoom to talk about his new book, From Where Loss Comes.

From Where Loss Comes is an unblinking look at how sacrifice and belonging are deeply rooted in the human experience. Sixty photographs and close to 9,000 words consider pain and suffering that is private, sacrificial, and yet rattles against values that are thought of as being inalienable — our fundamental human rights.
