The AfterWords Literary Festival presents Minor Black Figures: In Conversation. We are thrilled to welcome Booker Prize finalist and bestselling author Brandon Taylor back to AfterWords. As he did so adeptly in Real Life and The Late Americans, Brandon brings to life in Minor Black Figures a fascinating set of characters, this time in the competitive art world. Minor Black Figures is an involving and tender portrait of friendship, creativity, and the connections between them. Local triple-threat (musician-actor-writer) and Taylor super-fan Stewart Legere conducts his dream interview. Presented by the University of King’s College.
Join us on Sunday, November 2nd at 3:30 PM (doors at 3:00 PM). Tickets are $15 and you can purchase them HERE.
