If a piece sells, 100% of the proceeds go directly to the artist.The event serves as a community incubator, connecting artists, art lovers, neighbors, local organizations, and small businesses. Guests will explore East Dock, a historic 1915 warehouse, while experiencing local art, food, drinks, and a welcoming community atmosphere.
What is Pegasus Creative Reuse?

In The Vanishings, Kavi Yaga brings together eight stories set in contemporary South India, exploring absence in its many forms: people who disappear, relationships that fade, memories that linger, and the quiet ways lives are reshaped over time. Moving between intimate family histories and broader social realities, the collection reflects on identity, migration, gender, and belonging in an increasingly interconnected world.
Yaga joins author Sanderia Faye for a conversation about her debut fiction collection, as well as her approach to the short story form and the ways place, language, and memory shape her writing. Faye is the award-winning author of Mourner’s Bench, a professor at Southern Methodist University, co-founder of the Kimbilio Center for Fiction, and co-director of PEN America Dallas.
Kavi Yaga is a writer based in Hyderabad, India. Her debut short story collection, The Vanishings: Eight Stories (Texas Review Press), was selected by Kaveh Akbar as the winner of the George Garrett Fiction Prize. She is also the author of the travel memoir Walking in Clouds and co-editor of Work, Wisdom, Legacy: 31 Essays from India. A 2023 Yaddo Fellow and runner-up for the Calvino Prize for Speculative Fiction, her stories and essays have appeared in One Story, The Hindu, Swamp Pink, River Teeth, and other publications. Before becoming a full-time writer, she worked as a software engineer in Chicago and as a development economics researcher in South India, experiences that continue to inform her fiction.

Bienvenidos a nuestro club de lectura en Español. Después de un periodo de pausa, retomamos el ciclo con nuevos títulos y varias sorpresas para quienes os apetezca participar en un espacio de lectura en Español.
Seguimos con Así en el cielo como en la tierra, de Ana María Paula. Una novela que explora los vínculos familiares, la memoria y las relaciones que nos forman, a través de una historia en la que el pasado y el presente se entrelazan y donde las decisiones, los afectos y las ausencias continúan resonando a lo largo del tiempo.
El club se reunirá una vez al mes y estará coordinado por Gabriel Calbosa. Nuestra intención es que cada encuentro cuente con alguna participación especial, ya sea de la autora o autor del libro o a través de mensajes dirigidos a los miembros del club.
¡Ojalá puedas unirte y disfrutar de la literatura en Español!
