Description: For Beyond 50's "Literary" talks, listen to an interview with Ashley Mansour. She is the author of a dystopian sci-fi novel for young adults that is gaining lots of praise and international recognition. Set in the future, books are a distant memory. The written word has been replaced by an ever-present stream of images known as Verity. In the controlling dominion of the United Vales of Fell, reading is obsolete and forbidden, and readers themselves do not-cannot-exist. But where others see images in the stream, teenager Noelle Hartley sees words. She's obsessed with what they mean, where they came from, and why they found her. Noelle's been keeping her dangerous fixation with words a secret, but on the night before her seventeenth birthday, a rare interruption in the stream leads her to a mysterious volume linked to an underworld of rebel book lovers known as the Nine of the Rising.
