Ashley Whitaker presents Bitter Texas Honey
In conversation with Kristen Roupenian
The Royal Tenenbaums meets Fleabag in this hilarious and dizzyingly smart debut novel by Ashley Whitaker! Funny, whip-smart, and often tender, Bitter Texas Honey introduces us to the unforgettable and indefatigable Joan West: ambitious, full of contradictions, utterly herself. As she wades through it all—addiction, politics, loss, and, notably, her father’s string of increasingly bizarre girlfriends—we witness her confront what it means to be a person, and an artist, in the world. Whitaker reads from and discusses the book with Kristen Roupenian (author of Cat Person and You Know You Want This), to be followed by an audience Q&A and signing.
