Jess Walter has been a finalist for both the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award. His novel, "Beautiful Ruins," was a #1 New York Times Bestseller, and remains, to this day, one of the best books our co-owners have ever read. His latest endeavor, "So Far Gone," is brilliant – it offers timely social commentary, humor, and heart. It’s a thoroughly enjoyable read, and we count it among the very best published this year.
It is our great pleasure to give you the opportunity to meet Jess Walter! Join us for a Cocktails & Convos event on Friday, September 12, at 7 PM. The evening will feature a conversation with the author, a curated cocktail available for purchase, and the opportunity to have your book personalized and have a photo taken with the author.
