JCLS Presents: An Evening with Jess Walter, 18+ YRS

Join JCLS and author Jess Walter in conversation as he discusses his latest book So Far Gone, and more with the Jackson County Community. Get your copy of the book following the talk!

Bestselling author Jess Walter is renowned for his narrative versatility, seamlessly transitioning between genres and tones. With ten books under his belt, Walter is perhaps best known for his #1 New York Times bestseller Beautiful Ruins, which was on the list for 69 weeks, 5 of those at #1. Whether through the misadventures of his endearingly flawed characters or the clever banter that punctuates the dialogue, Walter draws readers into a world where dark humor and introspection coexist in perfect harmony. 

His most recent novel So Far Gone, is a provocative adventure through life in modern America in the propulsive spirit of Charles Portis’ True GritSo Far Gone follows a reclusive journalist forced back into the world to rescue his kidnapped grandchildren.

This event is sponsored by the Jackson County Library Foundation.
