07.01: Stephanie Kallos in Conversation with Ellen Urbani
2015-06-16 23:04:39| Powells Books Events Calendar
Language Arts (Houghton Mifflin), the new novel from Stephanie Kallos, author of Broken for You, spins the stories of a dedicated teacher, his enigmatic son, and a wartime survivor into an affecting tale of love, loss, and handwriting. Charles Marlow teaches his high school students that language will expand their worlds. But linguistic precision cannot help him connect with his autistic son, or with his ex-wife, or even with his college-bound daughter who has just flown the nest. With the help of an ambitious art student, an Italian-speaking nun, and the memory of a boy in a white suit who inscribed his childhood with both solace and sorrow, Charles may finally be able to rewrite the script of his life. Kallos will be joined in conversation by Ellen Urbani, author of the forthcoming novel Landfall.
