New Fiction Showcase: Our Yesterdays, Today

The middle-of-nowhere Wisconsin in 1919; the Chinese countryside in 1917; the realm of the Scottish nobility in the 11th century: three new books immerse us in these sweeping histories, peopled with complicated characters, making the past feel present and alive. Join authors David Wroblewski (Familiaris), Wendy Chen (Their Divine Fires), and Joel Morris (All Our Yesterdays: a Novel of Lady MacBeth) to read from and celebrate their new novels, and share a thought or two about why yesterday matters today.
