Description

Masks are encouraged and appreciated, but not mandatory for this event.

Bestselling author Jennifer Egan deep dives into her critically acclaimed novel The Candy House, the companion to her Pulitzer Prize-winning A Visit from the Goon Squad. Skillfully crafted and chillingly prescient, The Candy House foretells a future where memory is made a commodity, told in an astonishing array of narrative styles. Tara Westover (Educated) leads the conversation, and Dylan Baker (Hunters) performs an excerpt from the book.
