Looking to discover your new favorite author? Join us for our signature reading series, Story Is the Thing, to hear four stellar Northern California fiction authors read from their debut and latest titles.

Our guests are Grant Faulkner for his “flash novel,” something out there in the distance, a collaboration with the photographer Gail Butensky about two lovers on a road trip through the American desert; Vanessa Hua for her riveting and deeply heartfelt new novel Coyoteland; Lindsay Kent for My Twin the Murderer, her psychological thriller deeply rooted in the history of Menlo Park and the surrounding region; and, finally, J.P. Lacrampe for Valet, his whimsical novel about a helper robot and his 35-year-old ward’s madcap adventure.
