An Afternoon with Author Paul Auster
Saturday, November 19th, 1:00 p.m.
In his first official appearance at Green-Wood Cemetery, the popular and prolific author Paul Auster will talk about his most recent novel, Sunset Park, a New York Times Bestseller. Published in hardcover in November 2010, the paperback edition of Auster's sixteenth novel was released a few weeks ago. Auster's book follows a group of four people in their twenties who are squatting in an abandoned house in Sunset Park across the street from Green-wood Cemetery during the 2008 economic collapse.
The book talk will be followed by a question-and-answer period with the author.
Cost: $15 for members of The Green-Wood Historic Fund; $20 for non-members.
