About this Event
The Book Stall is thrilled to host a discussion with bestselling author Patrick Ryan to celebrate the paperback release of Buckeye, “a glorious sweep of a novel” (Ann Patchett) that weaves the intimate lives of two midwestern families across generations, from World War II to the late twentieth century. Sweeping yet intimate, rich with piercing observation and the warmth that comes from profound understanding of the human spirit, Buckeye captures the universal longing for love and for goodness. Mr. Ryan will be in-conversation with the Book Stall's Robert McDonald.
Tickets include a copy of the book, Mr. Ryan will be happy to sign his work!
Patrick Ryan is the author of the novel Buckeye. He is also the author of the story collections The Dream Life of Astronauts (named one of the Best Books of the Year by the St. Louis Times-Dispatch, LitHub, Refinery 29, and Electric Literature, and longlisted for The Story Prize) and Send Me. His work has appeared in The Best American Short Stories, the anthology Tales of Two Cities, and elsewhere.
