11.01: Andrea Kleine in Conversation with Vanessa Veselka

2015-10-14 00:04:01| Powells Books Events Calendar

John Hinckley Jr.'s 1981 assassination attempt on President Reagan shocked the nation. It was also the year Andrea Kleine learned her close childhood friend had been violently murdered by her socialite mother, Leslie DeVeau. These two real-life, converging events inspired Kleine's novel, Calf (Soft Skull). Creepy, unsettling, and absolutely addictive, Calf is a penetrating character study, a meditation on the zeitgeist of the '80s, and an unflinching depiction of violence, both intimate and sensational. Kleine will be joined in conversation by Vanessa Veselka, author of Zazen.
