Pulitzer prize-winning author of Tinkers, Paul Harding, will read from his new novel, Enon, which follows the grandson of Tinkers' protagonist, George Crosby, through a year of his life after a sudden and devastating loss. Inhabiting the same New England landscape so intricately rendered in Tinkers, in quiet, painstakingly precise prose, Harding's latest work carries sadness without ever being sentimental. With Thessaly La Force, culture editor for Vogue.com, graduate of the Iowa Writer's Workshop, and previously editor of The Paris Review Daily. 

 “[Enon is] an elegiac portrait of a severed family and the town of Enon itself, and Harding again proves himself a contemporary master and one of our most important writers.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
