In Conversation with John Larison

Port Townsend’s 2020 Community Read is John Larison’s Whiskey When We’re Dry, and Adrianne will be talking with John about the novel, which Timothy Egan calls, “A thunderclap of originality, here is a fresh voice and fresh take on one of the oldest stories we tell about ourselves as Americans and Westerners. It’s riveting in all the right ways — a damn good read that stayed with me long after closing the covers.”

In Conversation with Tim O'Brien - The Elliott Bay Book Company

Adrianne will be "in conversation" with the remarkable Tim O'Brien to talk about his long-anticipated and timely new book, Dad's Maybe Book.

“[A] stirring blend of memoir, letters to his young sons, and meditations on the humbling nature of parenthood . . . It’s a work that’s the spiritual inheritor of John Steinbeck’s Travels With Charley and Kurt Vonnegut’s A Man Without a Country. Like those, Dad’s Maybe Book dwells on the state of America and American life. He takes absolutism to task, finds qualifications for his own pacifism and considers the paradox of a moral society that allows for forever war.” - Time Magazine.
