Literati Bookstore and the Jewish Community Center of Greater Ann Arbor Present Nathan Englander
Literati Bookstore is thrilled to partner with the JCC of Ann Arbor as part of their annual Jewish Book Fest and welcome author Nathan Englander to Zingerman's Greyline in support of his new novel Dinner at the Center of the Earth. Zingerman's Greyline will have food and drinks available for purchase! General Admission is the cost of the hardcover with tax, and books will be picked up at the event.
About the book: A prisoner in a secret cell. The guard who has watched over him a dozen years. An American waitress in Paris. A young Palestinian man in Berlin who strikes up an odd friendship with a wealthy Canadian businessman. And The General, Israel's most controversial leader, who lies dying in a hospital, the only man who knows of the prisoner's existence. From these vastly different lives Nathan Englander has woven a portrait of a nation riven by insoluble conflict, even as the lives of its citizens become fatefully and inextricably entwined
About the author: Nathan Englander is the author of the novel The Ministry of Special Cases, and the story collections For the Relief of Unbearable Urges and What We Talk About When We Talk About Anne Frank, winner of the Frank O'Connor International Short Story Award and finalist for the Pulitzer Prize. His short fiction has been widely anthologized, most recently in 100 Years of the Best American Short Stories. Englander's play The Twenty-Seventh Man premiered at The Public Theater in 2012. He also translated the New American Haggadah and co-translated Etgar Keret's Suddenly a Knock on the Door. He is Distinguished Writer-in-Residence at New York University, and lives in Brooklyn, New York, with his wife and daughter.
