We focus on authors we love and feel deserve far more attention than they get. This is an elevated kind of book signing, designed to be part of a real evening out. We provide the author, the beautiful venue of the auditorium at the Hemingway Museum, and wonderful things to eat and drink (this time its champagne and extravagant desserts!). All the proceeds of our ticket sales go to The Magic Tree Bookshop for use by the children at Hephzibah: the kids can wander in, pick out a book that speaks to them, and take it home, for free. At each event, we have an essay reader as a warm-act, talking about what books and reading mean to them. We always have some sort of surprise, too. We allow for questions from the audience at each event. Stewart ONan, our March author, has a new novel called WEST OF SUNSET coming out January 13th. Its about F. Scott Fitzgeralds years in Hollywood, which came near the end of his life, and its garnered great reviews. Hell talk about this and his other books, and youll come away with a real sense of who this author is. Come and take part in this wonderful series; youll leave inspired, edified, and happy. Were growing for a reason--people really like what we do! The comment I hear most often it, This was so much FUN! ONan is on a kind of mission to restore a simple, true sense of humanity to the novel. --THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW
