Welcome to the 6th Annual Ashland Literary Arts Festival! This year’s event focuses on independent story and thought throughout the entire Cascadia region, celebrating not only books, but all forms of expression: literature, poetry, journalism, art, lyrics, comics, film, and documentary. We invite you to come on in, explore the festival schedule, and find the stories that speak to you!
Winetsky’s fourth novel, Belagana-Belazana (Book IV in the Series) was published in January of 2017. It takes place in the Navajo Nation, where the author taught almost fifty years ago. The novel is a vivid treatment of cultural conflict, bureaucratic dysfunction, and the beauty of the Navajo Nation. The story is structured around a desperate search for a runaway boy in a blizzard.
