SUMMARY:David Rocklin: The Night Language
DESCRIPTION:The Bindery is happy to welcome David Rocklin for The Night Language. Please join us! \nThe Night Language tells the story of a young man\, Prince Alamayou of Abyssinia (present day Ethiopia)\, who is taken from his home and the Abyssinian war to the court of Queen Victoria—a world he knows nothing about. With him is Philip Layard\, a young apprentice to one of the doctors on the battlefield in Abyssinia\, who becomes Alamayou’s guardian\, only friend\, and eventually\, the love of his life. When Parliament accuses Alamayou of murder\, the young prince is sentenced to return to Abyssinia\, where he will be executed. \nHis only hope comes from the very thing that cannot be uttered: the unexpected and forbidden love between Alamayou and Philip. \nInspired by true events\, The Night Language is a unique novel of love\, loss\, and the consequences of repressive societies. \n— \n“Not since Michael Ondaatje’s The English Patient have I read a novel in which a character—the story and skinsong of Alamayou–has haunted language\, history\, and heart so intensely. If you read one novel this year\, let it be The Night Language. It is still possible for a reader’s heart to be broken back open.” —Lidia Yuknavitch\, author of The Small Backs of Children and The Chronology of Water \n— \nDavid Rocklin is the author of The Luminist and the founder/curator of Roar Shack\, a monthly reading series in Los Angeles. He was born and raised in Chicago and now lives in LA with his wife\, daughters\, and a 150 lb Great Dane who seriously needs to stay on his own bed. He’s currently at work on his next novel\, The Electric Love Song of Fleischl Berger. \n— \nIf you cannot attend the event\, but would like a signed copy of The NIght Language\, please follow this link and place your order\, filling out the special request field: http://www.booksmith.com/book/9781945572487
