Book talk & signing with Lindsay Hatton for Monterey Bay. Event #2 of Bookshop’s 2017 Books & Brews Passport Series
Locals, do not miss this author visit at Discretion Brewing’s picture perfect beer garden! Born and raised in Monterey, debut novelist Lindsay Hatton has written a book that pairs a mesmerizing plot with the beauty and history of the Monterey Bay shoreline.
Join us for a night of lovingly crafted beer, a skillfully written story, and get your copy of Monterey Bay signed!
This enchanting debut novel tells the tale of feisty, fifteen-year-old Margot Fiske and her eccentric entrepreneur father, Anders, as they arrive on the shores of Monterey Bay, the locale soon to be immortalized by John Steinbeck’s Cannery Row. Fans of Steinbeck will love the nods in this storyline! Young Margot quickly falls for Ed Ricketts, the biologist known as “Doc” in Steinbeck’s novel, setting in motion a chain of events that will affect not just them, but the future of the Monterey Bay Aquarium. Ms. Hatton will be in-conversation with essayist and novelist, Ryan Sloan.
Ryan Sloan is a novelist and essayist. He is on the faculty at the University of California, Berkeley’s College Writing Programs. Ryan is also a co-host of the long-running Babylon Salon reading series in San Francisco. He holds an MFA from the Creative Writing Program at New York University.
