 American Bangladeshi Muslim femme perspective\, and interrogates the ancie
 nt violence and ancestral trauma of a lush land continually threatened by 
 colonization\, capitalism\, and climate change. Structured like a perfume
 —moving from base to heart to head notes—In Sensorium brings memoir t
 ogether with eons of South Asian perfume history\, erotic and religious te
 xts\, and survivor testimonies. The program\, similarly\, takes the shape 
 of fragrance. In between readings from the book\, participants will experi
 ence a selection of scent interludes prepared by Tanaïs specially for thi
 s occasion\, as well as a conversation with Samhita Mukhopadhyay\, former 
 Executive Editor\, Teen Vogue. Plus\, enjoy an after-hours viewing of Ba
 seera Khan: I Am an Archive.\n\nPresented in partnership with the Asian A
 merican Writers’ Workshop\, a nonprofit literary organization devoted to

 diasporic writers.\n\nTickets are $20. Member tickets are $16. Tickets in
