William Kennedy Reads from his New Book Chango's Beads and Two-Tone Shoes in Class

William Kennedy recently met with students who had read his new book “Chango’s Beads and Two-Tone Shoes” in the classes of UAlbany professors Langdon Brown and Edward Schwarzschild to discuss writing and answer their questions.

The discussion centered on issues of writing techniques – writing dialogue and character development – mixing historical figures with invented characters in the novel, and how Kennedy learned Spanish.
