So Far Gone: An Evening with Jess Walter

Folio: The Seattle Athenaeum is delighted to welcome back author Jess Walter for a night of reading and audience conversation.

Join us for a relaxed evening with one of the Pacific Northwest's most beloved voices. His acclaimed new novel So Far Gone follows a reclusive journalist who emerges from the woods to rescue his kidnapped grandchildren from his son-in-law's right-wing religious cult, a razor-sharp road trip through a fractured America that has earned raves from Ann Patchett to the Washington Post.

Jess will be in conversation with YOU, the audience, so bring your all questions about the book, previous books the craft of writing, the writing process, getting published or anything else entirely.
