“Beattie has created a resplendent paean to the pleasures of the literary
imagination , and a riveting and mischievous, revealing and revitalizing
portrait of an overlooked woman.”— Donna Seaman in a starred review in Booklist of Ann Beattie's new work of metafiction, Mrs. Nixon (November 2011), a literary deconstruction and reconstruction of First Lady Pat Nixon (pictured here).
Ann Beattie will share the stage with poet Peg Boyers, tomorrow, Thursday, July 19th, 8PM, Davis Audiorium, Palamountain Hall, 815 North Broadway, Saratoga.
All events in the series are free and open to the general public.
