The Epicenter with Adam Johnson & Jack Boulware March 27, 2012

Litquake continues its Epicenter series, presenting author Adam Johnson in conversation with Litquake co-founder Jack Boulware.

The New York Times called Johnson's latest novel, The Orphan Master's Son, "a daring and remarkable novel, a novel that not only opens a frightening window on the mysterious kingdom of North Korea, but one that also excavates the very meaning of love and sacrifice."

The conversation between Johnson and Boulware will be wide-ranging, moving from Johnson's research trip to No. Korea to the process of writing to Johnson's work at Stanford.

Johnson is also the author of Emporium, a short-story collection, and the novel Parasites Like Us.

The Epicenter embraces a theater of ideas between writers and readers with a literary conversation followed by audience Q&A, book sales and signing. Admission is free, cocktails recommended. Capacity is limited, so come early.
