Murder Mystery at The Readery
On October 24th at 7:00, the year will magically become 1942. The place will be Casablanca, in the last days of Vichy France. America has just entered the war, and next month US troops will land in Casablanca.
For now, France rules this corner of Northwest Africa. Our murder will unfold in the dining room of the official residence of Huges Le Grandbutte, the Deputy Mayor of Casablanca. Lighting is by candle. Dinner is onion soup, boef bourguignon, melon with port, and brie and fresh bread (or appropriate alternative). Drinks will be served.
Space is limited! And we've booked a photographer, so dress accordingly! :)
ACOTAR Midnight Meetup
Dress up and come in to pick up the NEW ACOTAR book! Let’s make this a night to remember!
Veterans' Day Discussion with Adrian Bonenberger
Join us for a conversation with Adrian Bonenberger this Veterans' Day! We will discuss his service, his writing and editing (Books: Afghan Post and The Road Ahead, articles in The New York Times and Foreign Policy, his literary magazine focused on the consequences of armed conflict), his work in Ukraine training soldiers, and all of his groundbreaking ideas to further social causes here in the US.
Adrian is an Army Infantry veteran of multiple deployments in support of the conflict in Afghanistan. He is a graduate of Yale and Columbia School of Journalism. He is a father and husband. And he is someone who never fails to inspire me with his vision, passion, and resilience.
