Creation Lake: Rachel Kushner with John Freeman
Thursday October 17, 2024 7:30pm - 9:00pm PDT

From Rachel Kushner, a Booker Prize finalist, two-time National Book Award finalist, and “one of the most gifted authors of her generation” (The New York Times Book Review), comes a new novel about a seductive and cunning American spy of ruthless tactics, bold opinions, and clean beauty who infiltrates an anarchist collective in France—Kushner’s finest achievement yet as a novelist, a work of high art, high comedy, and unforgettable pleasure. Written in short, vaulting sections, Kushner’s rendition of “noir” is taut and dazzling. Moderated by editor and critic John Freeman. Doors at 7:00PM. $17 adv (book bundle avail.) / $20 door
