Literary Society – Bethany Jarmul

Writer and poet Bethany Jarmul will present A Literary Life: Cultivating Curiosity Amidst the Chaos, a reflective exploration of why literature and curiosity matter in a world full of noise and distraction. Drawing on her experiences as an Appalachian author whose work has appeared in numerous journals and whose writing has been nominated for honors including the Pushcart Prize and Best of the Net, Jarmul’s talk will invite audiences to consider how reading, writing, and creative inquiry can sustain meaning and insight amid life’s uncertainties. In her acclaimed work — including the poetry collection Lightning Is a Mother — she blends lyrical observation with thoughtful engagement on identity, place, and the transformative power of literary imagination. For more information, please contact Sister Rita Yeasted at 412-536-1216 or rita.yeasted@laroche.edu.
