Radio Catskill Highlights Deep Water Literary Festival: A Week of Authors and Events

The Deep Water Literary Festival returns to Narrowsburg this weekend and Radio Catskill is proud to be a media partner. Every day this week we’re featuring authors and events from the festival.When Jennifer Kabat moved from London to the Catskills in 2005, she had no idea it was the site of the "Anti-Rent War," an 1840s episode of American rural populism.Wandering the mountains, and building friendships within the local community, Kabat’s book, The Eighth Moon, weaves a multilayered meditation on history, resistance, and nature in a part of upstate New York that has long been a refuge for New Yorkers in search of a rural idyll.Kabat will be in conversation with Deep Water Literary Festival co-director Aaron Hicklin this Saturday at 530pm in Krause Hall, presented in association with the DVAA and Radio Catskill.She spoke to Tim Bruno on Radio Chatskill.
