David Wroblewski - The Story of Edgar Sawtelle
Start: 7:30 pm
Historic LoDo: David Wroblewski will read from and sign the new paperback edition of his extraordinary debut novel The Story of Edgar Sawtelle ($16.99 Ecco). Filled with breathtaking scenes—the elemental north woods, the sweep of seasons, an iconic American barn, a fateful vision rendered in the falling rain—The Story of Edgar Sawtelle is a meditation on the limits of language and what lies beyond, a brilliantly inventive retelling of an ancient story, and an epic tale of devotion, betrayal, and courage in the American heartland.
