“This semiannual salon hosts big-name authors, often all writing in the same genre, to talk over the finer points of their work.” – Time Out New York
Frank Delaney moderates a conversation with an esteemed panel of writers for a witty and engrossing literary salon. Panelists include bestselling writer on fashion, performance, art, and cultural politics Rhonda K. Garelick (Mademoiselle: Coco Chanel and the Pulse of History); “the high priestess of French lady wisdom” (USA Today) Mireille Guiliano (French Women Don't Get Fat and Meet Paris Oyster); New York Times bestselling author Kathryn Harrison (Joan of Arc: A Life Transfigured); professor, historian, and author on warfare Michael Neiberg (The Blood of Free Men: The Liberation of Paris, 1944); and professor, essayist, and author Ronald Rosbottom (When Paris Went Dark).
The evening will include live music from French cabaret singer Yvonne Constant. A special menu will be available for those who wish to linger for conversation and book signings.
