Panorama City (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt)
Acclaimed local author Antoine Wilson (The Interloper) will read and sign his highly anticipated new novel, Panorama City. Booksellers have been buzzing about this book since advance copies went out in the spring, and with its strong early reviews, it has all the earmarks of a hit in the making! "Wilson's second novel (after Interloper) is fresh and flawlessly crafted as well as charmingly genuine." --Publishers Weekly "God bless Oppen Porter! His innocence and lack of pretense are our good fortune and our delight. Under his observation, our follies and schemes and manias go up in the brightest, funniest, heartrending flames. This is precisely (and artfully) because he does not judge them. Panorama City is charming and absurd, very funny and, best of all, humane through and through." --Paul Harding, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Tinkers Antoine Wilson is the author of the novel The Interloper, and his work has appeared in The Paris Review, StoryQuarterly, and Best New American Voices. A graduate of the Iowa Writers’ Workshop, he is a contributing editor of A Public Space and the recipient of a Carol Houck Smith Fiction Fellowship from the University of Wisconsin. Wilson lives and surfs in Los Angeles.
