Exclusive Reading of Alexander Maksik's Newest Novel, Shelter in Place, on Oct. 5th!
SEE EVENT DETAILS
To celebrate the launch of his newest novel, Shelter in Place, Alexander Maksik will be doing an intimate reading as part of his national book tour in San Francisco on Wednesday, October 5th !
Join Alexander Maksik at City Lights Bookstore in San Francisco at 7:00PM for an exclusive reading and discussion about his much anticipated third novel, Shelter in Place, that’s just been released by Europa Editions, publisher of Elena Ferrante, among many others. Shelter in Place is a riveting, emotional and disturbingly stylish literary novel set in the Pacific Northwest in the 1990s about the hereditary nature of mental illness, the fleeting intensity of youth, the obligations of family, and the dramatic consequences of love.
The San Francisco chronicle just published a rave review of the novel, which begins: “There’s something truly exhilarating about reading a novel that’s so audaciously original, so inventive and let’s be honest, so sort of weird that you want to put it in the hands of just about everyone you know. And that’s a perfect description of Alexander Maksik’s stunningly unsettling third novel, Shelter in Place.”
“Shelter in Place is a sharp, dark, jagged music conjured out of poetry, pain and ecstatic bursts of beauty. This is a powerful book,” says Lauren Groff.
