This evening, April 27, at 7 pm, please join me in celebrating the virtual launch of SUMMER SOLSTICE, an expanded version of a series of essays I wrote for the Paris Review Daily, published in a beautiful letterpress edition by the legendary Black Sparrow Press and hosted by the mighty Brookline Booksmith. I’m lucky to be in conversation with author and Paris Review online editor Nadja Spiegelman.

You can register for the event here.

And you can support your favorite local bookstore and buy a copy here through Indiebound.

Here’s to calm and health and the seasons continuing to unfold.

Happy solstice, everyone, happy first day of summer. In the finale of this solstice series for the Paris Review, there's pagan wildness, bonfires, tan lines, D.H. Lawrence, Janis Joplin, blood, time, memory, hot dogs. Dive in.
