Books Inc. Presents Lunch at The Chapel with Emma Donoghue!

From the author of the worldwide bestseller Room "Her greatest achievement yet...Emma Donoghue shows more than range with Frog Music--she shows genius." -- Darin Strauss, author of Half a Life

Her international bestseller Room was a New York Times Best Book of 2010 and was a finalist for the Man Booker Award. Her explosive new novel, Frog Music is based on an unsolved murder in 1876 San Francisco. The much talked about new Vestry Restaurant at The Chapel will open for a special ticketed lunch honoring Emma Donoghue on April 11 at noon.

Tickets are $60 and include a lunch and a signed first edition of Frog Music.

About the author: Emma Donoghue is an Irish emigrant twice over: she spent eight years in Cambridge doing a PhD in eighteenth-century literature before moving to London, Ontario, where she lives with her partner and their two children. She also migrates between genres, writing literary history, biography, and stage and radio plays, as well as fairy tales and short stories. She is best known for her novels, which range from the historical to the contemporary. Her international bestseller Room was a New York Times Best Book of 2010 and was a finalist for the Man Booker, Commonwealth and Orange Prizes.

You can enjoy a special Frog Music themed cocktail created just for this event, cheers!
