Lightning People (Soft Skull Press)
Christopher Bollen, former editor-in-chief and current editor-at-large at Interview magazine, will read and sign his acclaimed debut novel, Lightning People. "Bollen's intricate, humid Lightning People deftly combines paranoia and high drama with the mundane ache of real relationships, real weather, and a very real New York City. He delves into the the haunting mythologies we truly can't escape, while somehow capturing the sweetness of why we come together anyway." --Miranda July "Smart and rich with the spirit of our age, with keen insight into human emotions and why we do the things we do. So readable." -Douglas Coupland THIS EVENT WAS RECORDED LIVE AT SKYLIGHT BOOKS SEPTEMBER 19, 2011.
