Donna Seaman
Celebrate the Release of Donna Seaman’s New Memoir, River of Books
On Wednesday, Dec. 4th at 6:30 PM The Book Stall hosts renowned Booklist editor Donna Seaman as we celebrate the release of her new memoir, River of Books. She will be joined in conversation by Miles Harvey, author of the recently published The Registry of Forgotten Objects. Kirkus says, “A ‘constant reader’ who generously advocates for a wide diet of literature, from novels to poetry to narrative nonfiction to essays and all that lie between, Seaman counsels that ‘the more varied our reading, the more detailed, intricate, and vital our perceptions become.’ A lively and entertaining contribution to the shelf of books about books.”
