Diane Williams presents thirty-six new stories from her collection I Liked Rex, exploring the spiritual within the everyday through her distinctive brevity and intelligence. Lydia Davis notes that Williams's prose defies expectation, transforming the ordinary into something fresh, peculiar and utterly alive on the page.
Williams will read from her work and engage in conversation with Lucie Elven, a contributor to the London Review of Books and author of The Weak Spot. This is an essential event for readers of experimental fiction and the short form.
The event begins at 7 p.m. sharp. St. JOHN, located next door, serves wine, cocktails and snacks until 6.55 p.m.
