The Meadworks is thrilled to host bestselling author Louis Bayard (https://www.louisbayard.com/) to discuss his latest, highly acclaimed novel, "The Wildes" (https://www.louisbayard.com/the-wildes). As we anticipate high interest in this event, seating opens at 6:30pm.
Lou will do a reading from the novel, centering on Oscar Wilde's wife Constance and their two sons in the aftermath of the famous playwright's imprisonment for homosexuality, and answer questions from moderator Rosanna Weaver and the audience.
Lou will also be happy to sign books and there will be copies of the hardback available for sale at the event.
In the words of the New York Times, Louis Bayard “reinvigorates historical fiction,” rendering the past “as if he’d witnessed it firsthand.” His acclaimed novels include The Pale Blue Eye, adapted into the global #1 Netflix release starring Christian Bale, Jackie & Me, ranked by the Washington Post as one of the top novels of 2022, the national bestseller Courting Mr. Lincoln, Roosevelt's Beast, The School of Night, The Black Tower, and Mr. Timothy, as well as the highly praised young-adult novel, Lucky Strikes.
Free event. Indoor and outdoor seating. Tipping encouraged.
