P&T Knitwear is pleased to welcome back internationally acclaimed author Juhea Kim for a discussion and audience Q&A to celebrate the release of her newest book, City of Night Birds: a vivid portrait of the Russian ballet world — where cutthroat ambition, ever-shifting politics, and sublime artistry collide — and an affecting meditation on love, forgiveness, and the making of an artist .

Juhea will be joined in conversation by Rachel Lyon, author of Fruit of the Dead. After the talk, Juhea will sign copies of City of Night Birds.

Join us for an evening with Paris Writer in Residence Rachel Lyon to discuss Lyon’s captivating new novel, Fruit of the Dead, "an electric contemporary reimagining of the myth of Persephone and Demeter set over the course of one summer on a lush private island, exploring who holds the power in a modern underworld."  The conversation will range across the complexity of mother-daughter relations, love, control, and American's own late capitalist mythos. 

Fruit of the Dead has been called "a spellbinding account of a young woman’s hunger for freedom, the sordid underbelly of big pharma, and the siren call of addiction" (Leslie Jameson).

The conversation will be followed by a drinks reception and book sale.

A combination writing workshop and guest lecture co-hosted by Grace Bialecki and Matt Jones, This workshop encourages participants to share their writing and discuss ways to improve their own, as well as participants’ work.
