Reading & Book Signing Town Hall Seattle, Downstairs, 1119 8th Avenue, Seattle (Enter on Seneca)
Like his legendary Pulitzer Prize–winning novel, The Hours, Michael Cunningham’s new novel is a heartbreaking look at the way we live now. Peter and Rebecca Harris are in their mid-40s, living in Manhattan, and nearing the apogee of committed careers in the arts. With a spacious loft, a college-age daughter, and lively friends, they are admirable, enviable contemporary urbanites with every reason, it seems, to be happy. But a visit from Rebecca’s younger brother, known in the family as Mizzy (“the mistake”), leaves Peter questioning his work and career—and the entire world he has so carefully constructed.
Tickets are free with the purchase of By Nightfall from University Book Store; otherwise tickets are $5. Books and tickets are available beginning September 28.
