Alice Martin will appear at the 2026 Greensboro Bound Book Festival as part of American Kaleidoscope, a celebration of diverse voices and stories taking place April 9–11 in Greensboro, North Carolina.

Westward Women, Martin’s debut novel, weaves together the stories of women seeking freedom and selfhood in an unsettled America, capturing a portrait of a nation defined not by one story, but by many. An assistant professor of English studies at Western Carolina University, she received her PhD in American Literature from Rutgers University. Her writing has appeared in the Carolina Quarterly, Appalachian Heritage, Triangle House Review, and elsewhere.

Presented in partnership with Scuppernong Books.
