As a 9-year-old boy, Javier Zamora traveled over 3,000 miles to be with his parents, who had fled El Salvador to live and work in the United States. Zamora traveled with a group of people who were initially strangers and the various people they paid to help them survive the two month journey. Zamora’s memoir about the experience, “Solito,” is the choice for Multnomah County’s ‘Everybody Reads’ program in 2025. We talk to Zamora in front of students at Portland’s McDaniel High School.
Every year, the Multnomah County Library chooses one book they hope the whole city of Portland will read. Between January and April, the Library, and their partner organizations, host events based around the themes of the book, and they distribute thousands of free copies—thanks to the Library Foundation—to readers of all ages from across the county. Here at Literary Arts, our role is to bring the author to town for a talk in the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall. This year, the 2025 Everybody Reads selection is the memoir Solito by Javier Zamora. For information about how to engage with the program, visit the Multnomah County Library's web site. I am thrilled to say Javier Zamora will be in Portland on Tuesday, March 11 at the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall for the culminating event of the 2025 Everybody Reads Program. For now, let's return to the 2024 Everybody Reads event, featuring Gabrielle Zevin and her novel Tomorrow, and Tomorrow and Tomorrow. Gabrielle Zevin has been steadily publishing fiction for almost two decades and has also written occasional criticism as well as award-winning screenplays. But it was Tomorrow, and Tomorrow and Tomorrow that catapulted her to the stratosphere of literary stardom. It was a #1 New York Times bestseller and spent over 50 weeks on the fiction bestseller list. To be sure, Tomorrow, and Tomorrow and Tomorrow is about video games, and makes a convincing argument for the power and potential of narrative storytelling in video games. But really, it is about making art, and questions about originality, appropriation, and ambition that come with that pursuit. And perhaps more so, it is a love story, about friends and creative partners, and the excitement, joy, tragedy, and betrayal that come with any long relationship. It's about something, I'd wager, we've all been thinking about the past few years: connection. Tickets for Everybody Reads 2025 with Javier Zamora are on sale now! Find your tickets here. Gabrielle Zevin is a New York Times best-selling novelist whose books have been translated into forty languages. Her tenth novel, Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, was a New York Times Best Seller, a Sunday Times Best Seller, and a selection of the Tonight Show's Fallon Book Club. Tomorrow was Amazon.com's #1 Book of the Year, Time Magazine's #1 Book of the Year, a New York Times Notable Book, and the winner of both the Goodreads Choice Award for Fiction and the Book of the Month Club's Book of the Year. Following a twenty-five-bidder auction, the feature film rights to Tomorrow were acquired by Temple Hill and Paramount Studios. The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry also spent many months on the New York Times Best Seller List. A.J. Fikry was honored with the Southern California Independent Booksellers Award for Fiction, the Japan Booksellers' Prize, among other honors. A.J. Fikry is now a feature film with a screenplay by Zevin. She has also written children's books, including the award-winning Elsewhere. She is the screenwriter of Conversations with Other Women (Helena Bonham Carter) for which she received an Independent Spirit Award Nomination for Best First Screenplay. She has occasionally written criticism for the New York Times Book Review and NPR's All Things Considered, and she began her writing career, at age fourteen, as a music critic for the Fort Lauderdale Sun-Sentinel. Zevin is a graduate of Harvard University. She lives in Los Angeles.

Cultisti! Avete presente quando alle elementari avete affrontato per la prima volta il tema degli Egizi e di conseguenza il Nilo, il quale, una volta ritiratosi dopo le piene, lasciava al suo passaggio una fertile fanghiglia? Detta fanghiglia, appunto, chiamata limo, rendeva il terreno particolarmente adatto alle coltivazioni e alla pastorizia, trasformando sezioni di arido deserto in vere e proprie culle di civiltà. I più furbi di voi avranno già capito tutto: il DBC è il fiume portatore di melme informi, mentre le vostre giovani e aridi menti sono le distese di deserto, pronte per far germogliare ogni sorta di oscuro presagio e sacrifizi di varia natura. Questa settimana, abbiamo quindi tanta minerale non gasata e cibi genuini nella Top 50, ampi spazi di DucaConte, gioco di carte super smart e pura improvvisazione da parte di Ale. Solito, insomma.

Si parla però anche del riuscitissimo Indiana Jones e l'antico cerchio, dell'ultimo Just Dance, di Monument Valley 3 e di Path of Exile 2.

At age 14, Luz Hernandez left her home country of Honduras to cross the border into the U.S. She was fleeing poverty, sexual abuse, and medical malpractice. The journey was traumatic; so was making a new start in the U.S. In the second episode of our two-part series created with Voice of Witness, host Maya Rupert talks to Luz about grit and determination, hope and belonging, and why hearing directly from immigrants is crucial to understanding the immigrant experience. This episode is created in partnership with Voice of Witness, an oral history nonprofit that advances human rights by amplifying the stories of people impacted by—and fighting against—injustice. To learn more, visit voiceofwitness.org. You can read Luz's full story in the Voice of Witness book “Solito, Solita,” along with the powerful oral histories of fourteen other youth refugees from Central America.

Solito, tells the story of author Javier Zamora's migration journey from El Salvador to the United States. Zamora traveled unaccompanied at the age of 9 years old.
Immigration remains a hot-button in American politics, but Javier Zamora tells the story of his own entry into the United States—a journey and a story that put a human face on the issue. Zamora is the author of “SOLITO,” his New York Times bestselling memoir and is the 2024 Reading Across Rhode Island Selection. Born in La Herradura, El Salvador in 1990, his parents fled the country due to the U.S.-funded Salvadoran Civil War from 1980-1992. Zamora was raised by his grandparents until the age of nine when he began his nine-week odyssey to Arizona. His memoir recounts the perilous journey. He is the author of a poetry collection entitled, “Unaccompanied.” He holds fellowships from CantoMundo, Colgate University, MacDowell, Macondo, the National Endowment for the Arts, Poetry Foundation, Stanford University and Yaddo. He is the recipient of a 2017 Lannan Literary Fellowship, the 2017 Narrative Prize and the 2016 Barnes & Noble Writer for Writers Award for his work in the Undocupoets Campaign.

Las normas y regulaciones anunciadas ayer por la JCE con la prohibición expresa de utilizar la figura del presidente de la República, que también es candidato, en la promoción de las ejecutorias y actos del gobierno desnuda a un partido que no ha invertido ni tiempo ni recursos en su propia construcción. El PRM nació con forceps, luego que el control del PLD y su socio sobre el tribunal superior electoral le diera ganancia de causa más de 30 veces a Miguel Vargas Maldonado. Vargas se aferró con tal fuerza al “jacho prendío” del PRD que lo apagó. Nacido bajo presión, dos años antes de las elecciones del 16 el PRM resultó en una mezcla de viejos dirigentes cansados por 16 años consecutivos de oposición y una generación de popys, incluido el propio Abinader, que en su mayoría eran hijos de otros dirigentes o parte de familias tradicionales perredistas con ciertos privilegios. Nadie pensó en el 2016 que el PLD sería barrido cuatro años después y que la ola anticorrupción movilizada por la MV entre el 17 y el 18, la ira colectiva provocada por la suspensión de las elecciones municipales en el 2020 le darían la presidencial a Abinader y la mayoría congresual y municipal al PRM. Pero pasó. Abinader sin duda ha tenido una gestión exitosa, a pesar de que tomó el gobierno en medio de la crisis covid. Nadie cuestiona las encuestas que le dan hasta 64% y los dos partidos de oposición están tan debilitados que no llegan al 30%. Pero… el PRM no funciona como partido sino como gobierno. José Ignacio Paliza anda en una ambulancia recogiendo los tránsfugas heridos como si el asunto se tratara de ganar por sobrepeso. Luis Abinader es ahora el único activo político del PRM, el resto de los dirigentes llegará a posiciones por inercia. Nadie sobresale, nadie plantea una posición, recogerán las sobras de la comida presidencial con posiciones electivas menores y ninguno construye para mañana. Un partido sin tiempo para si mismo y lleno de tránsfugas cuya única convicción es buscar un pedazo del pastel del estado, es una bomba que empezará a buscar formas de explotar tan pronto pasen las elecciones.
This week Write-minded wades into the important topic of writing about childhood trauma. Trauma is at the heart of many of our stories, whether you're writing coming-of-age or only touching upon childhood stories in the context of specific memoir scenes (or raw material for fiction). Javier's memoir, Solito, is a stunning book about his nine-week journey from El Salvador to the US as an unaccompanied minor when he was just nine years old. The original journey nearly killed him, and in this generous interview he speaks to how the journey of writing about his experience saved him. Learn more about your ad choices.

Beyond the Page: The Best of the Sun Valley Writers’ Conference
In this episode of Beyond the Page, recorded live at the 2023 conference, poet and memoirist Javier Zamora talks to legendary bookseller Mitchell Kaplan about his memoir Solito, which chronicles his experiences traveling from El Salvador to the United States, by himself, when he was 9 years old. Javier Zamora writes, and speaks, like someone who believes he can never afford to forget that journey, or the experience on the other side, in America, of growing up undocumented. You won't be able to forget, either. And that is the power of great literature. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Javier Zamora is a writer who believes he has a particular responsibility: to understand and also change the world through words. He comes from a tradition of poets in El Salvador who used poetry to denounce injustices, the “Generación Comprometida,” and his personal experience of migrating as a child alone to the United States has shaped his worldview. In his work, Javier has shared some of the most intimate and difficult moments of his own history, first in the award-winning poetry collection “Unaccompanied” and then in the New York Times best-selling memoir “Solito.” In this intimate conversation, Javier shares what it was like to return to those painful episodes in his writing, the complicated relationship he has with El Salvador, and what he hopes the role of poets and writers could be in these turbulent times.

Zamora is the first Salvadoran author to make the New York Times bestsellers list.
