Richard Russo is an American treasure. The writer of so many great novels (Empire Falls, Straight Man), we strongly encourage you to read his newest, Life and Art, which is a collection of essays. We know that so many people say, ESSAYS? Yes, essays, and they are spectacular. These are not arguments shoved in your face. These are thoughtful life reflections from one of the great writers of our time, and they should be savored and enjoyed. If you love Richard Russo, please join us as we talk about why art matters more now then ever, and why he believes he had to write this book.
