First United Methodist Church: Texas Reads, presented by Texas Monthly
1201 Lavaca Street, AUSTIN Texas
Two acclaimed Texas novelists discuss their very different new books — one a work of speculative science fiction, the other a riveting political thriller. The Ferryman follows Proctor Bennett as he learns about the supposedly utopian archipelago on which he’s living and begins questioning what he thought to be true. Devil Makes Three explores the lives of three people as they find a path through the aftermath of Haiti’s 1991 coup d’état, delving into questions of power, blood politics, and American complicity.
