A jaw-dropping tale of deceit, intrigue, and tested morality, you'll struggle not to tear through it in one sitting.About this Event
The Recent & Remarkable Book Club is devoted to reading modern literary fiction worth talking about. From award winners and international sensations to cult favorites and future classics, we'll explore some of the most compelling books of the past decade.
This month, we’re reading Mouth to Mouth by Antoine Wilson. Prepare yourself for a stylish, sspenseful, and critically acclaimed novel that explores the stories we tell, the lives we envy, and the truths we choose to believe. When a chance encounter at an airport reunites two former college acquaintances, one man recounts an extraordinary tale: years earlier, he saved a stranger from drowning, setting off a chain of events that would lead him into the orbit of immense wealth, privilege, and influence. Elegant, psychologically astute, and impossible to put down, Mouth to Mouth is a literary page-turner that invites readers to examine the slippery nature of memory, perception, and self-invention.
We will meet in person in the loft at our store at The Mark, 117 S. Pineapple Ave. The book club is $18, which includes a copy of Mouth to Mouth to be picked up at Bookstore1 any time before our meeting.
Antoine Wilson is the author of the novels Panorama City and The Interloper. His work has appeared in The Paris Review, StoryQuarterly, Best New American Voices, and the Los Angeles Times, among other publications, and he is a contributing editor of A Public Space.
