That's the mystery at the heart of Danielle Mémoire's novel, which opens with a writer on stage at a public reading--a public reading that isn't one, because she never reads a word, much to the audience's annoyance. When an audience member finally heckles her, the writer's response sets off a chain reaction of nested stories that tumble one after another like a row of dominoes.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach storyteller in the series (most are writers at public readings) builds on what's come before while often radically changing its meaning. Along the way, we encounter fatal stepladders, a painter obsessed with a transom window, a lovestruck dog-walker, and a lost cat restored to its owners through divine intervention. Playful, thought-provoking, and utterly unique, \u003ci\u003ePublic Reading Followed by Discussion\u003c\/i\u003e defies classification and invites every reader to join the game.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Danielle Mémoire\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1943150605\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781943150601\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Dalkey Archive Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/23\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.40w x 0.50d","brand":"Danielle Mémoire","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48486428606719,"sku":"9781943150601","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e2750fb4-8468-477b-82d3-0bbfaeaddb11.jpg?v=1778055424","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/public-reading-followed-by-discussion-danielle-mzsmoire-9781943150601","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
