SUMMARY:Lisa Robertson
DESCRIPTION:reading from \nThe Baudelaire Fractal \npublished by Coach House Books \nA debut novel by acclaimed poet Lisa Robertson\, in which a poet realizes she has written the works of Baudelaire. One morning\, the poet Hazel Brown wakes up in a strange hotel room to find that she’s written the complete works of Charles Baudelaire. Surprising as this may be\, it’s no more surprising to Brown than the impossible journey she’s taken to become the writer that she is. Animated by the spirit of the poète maudit\, she shuttles between London\, Vancouver\, Paris\, and the French countryside\, moving fluidly between the early 1980s and the present\, from rented room to rented room\, all the while considering such Baudelairian obsessions as modernity\, poverty\, and the perfect jacket. .. Part memoir\, part magical realism\, part hilarious trash-talking take on contemporary art and the poet’s life\, The Baudelaire Fractal is the long-awaited debut novel by the inimitable Lisa Robertson. \nPoet and essayist Lisa Robertson has held residencies at the California College of the Arts\, Cambridge University; University of California\, Berkeley; UC San Diego; and American University of Paris. Her books include Cinema of the Present\, Debbie: An Epic (nominated for the Governor General’s Award in Canada)\, The Men\, The Weather\, R’s Boat (poetry) and Occasional Works and Seven Walks from the Office for Soft Architecture (essays). Lisa Robertson’s Magenta Soul Whip (Coach House) was named one of The New York Times 100 Notable Books of 2010\, and was longlisted for the 2011 Warwick Prize for Writing. She currently lives in France.

SUMMARY:Andrew Altschul
DESCRIPTION:Andrew Altschul discusses his new novel\, The Gringa. \nPraise for The Gringa \n“The Gringa bites off an impressive chunk of American—and Peruvian—history with dynamic prose. It’s an exciting addition to the literature of terrorism and revolution.” —KARAN MAHAJAN\, author of The Association of Small Bombs \n“What every even slightly conscious American writer is trying to figure out right now is how to write about the state of America without clambering atop a soapbox. This is the considerable achievement of Andrew Altschul’s The Gringa.” —DAVID SHIELDS\, author of Reality Hunger \n“An extraordinary novel…powerful and provocative\, stylish and smart\, culturally relevant and emotionally astute.” —MOLLY ANTOPOL\, author of The Unamericans \nAbout The Gringa \nLeonora Gelb came to Peru to make a difference. A passionate and idealistic Stanford grad\, she left a life of privilege to fight poverty and oppression\, but her beliefs are tested when she falls in with violent revolutionaries. While death squads and informants roam the streets and suspicion festers among the comrades\, Leonora plans a decisive act of protest—until her capture in a bloody government raid\, and a sham trial that sends her to prison for life. \nTen years later\, Andres—a failed novelist turned expat—is asked to write a magazine profile of “La Leo.” As his personal life unravels\, he struggles to understand Leonora\, to reconstruct her involvement with the militants\, and to chronicle Peru’s tragic history. At every turn he’s confronted by violence and suffering\, and by the consequences of his American privilege. Is the real Leonora an activist or a terrorist? Cold-eyed conspirator or naïve puppet? And who is he to decide? \nIn this powerful and timely new novel\, Andrew Altschul maps the blurred boundaries between fact and fiction\, author and text\, resistance and extremism. Part coming-of-age story and part political thriller\, The Gringa asks what one person can do in the face of the world’s injustice. \n
