Open Book presents acclaimed novelists Michelle Huneven and Claire Lombardo in a literary event that explores the art of storytelling and the intimate dynamics of family narratives.
Mingle at a pre-hosted happy hour, enjoy the riveting dialogue, and take part in the Q&A and book signing from 6:30 – 9:00 pm. The authors’ books will be on sale at the event. Event proceeds will be donated to support author events and literary programs in the community.
Huneven’s Bug Hollow, which will be published on June 17, and Lombardo’s Same As It Ever Was span decades, navigating troubled marriages, estrangement, encroaching friendships, sibling rivalry and resentment, and the difficulty of finding one’s place in the world. This highly anticipated discussion will bring together two remarkable voices in contemporary literature, offering a rare glimpse into their creative processes and the inspiration behind their acclaimed works.
