A Literary Series Event
featuring
Daly Walker

Date
Tuesday, February 1, 2022

Time
4 PM

Location
Johann Fust Community Library – Loggia and Courtyard

Daly Walker has released his second collection of short stories, The Doctor’s Dilemma. Daly creates poignant worlds shimmering with hope, pathos, trauma, and healing in this engrossing collection of short stories. Englightenment and introspection pervade these stories, shaping their physician-protagonists’ outlooks. They help readers to understand that all doctors stand in the shadow of the Hippocratic Oath. With their focus on issues of morality and mortality, the stories dramatize the lifelong commitment made by those who practice medicine. 

Daly’s short stories have appeared in numerous literary publications, including The Atlantic Monthly and The Saturday Evening Post. They have been shortlisted for Best American Short Stories, a Pushcart Prize, and an O’Henry Award. His first published collection of stories was titled Surgeon Stories. Daly teaches a fiction writer’s workshop at Dartmouth College in Osher@Dartmouth’s summer program.

Daly’s talk will be followed by a book signing and reception.
