About this Event

Book Launch: Gwendoline Riley presents The Palm House
In conversation with Brandon TaylorWine reception to follow

Gwendoline Riley (My Phantoms and First Love) launches The Palm House, a droll and quietly evocative novel about work, friendship, family, and the path—so often muddled—toward finding one’s place in life. A novel of enduring friendships and small mercies, The Palm House offers Riley’s trademark keen observation and wit, and leaves us with a sense of possibility. Author of Minor Black Figures Brandon Taylor joins Riley for a reading and discussion on the novel, before an audience Q&A and signing.
