Pulitzer Prize-winning author Jeffrey Eugenides will conduct a free reading at the University of Chicago’s Logan Center for the Arts (Performance Hall 074) at 5 p.m. on Thursday, May 9.
As the University of Chicago’s 2013 Kestnbaum Writer-in-Residence, Eugenides will be reading from his latest work. There’s no word on whether this “latest work” refers to his 2011 novel The Marriage Plot or a work in progress. A conversation with WBEZ book and arts critic Donna Seaman will follow, as will a book signing. In addition to The Marriage Plot, Eugenides has written The Virgin Suicides, which was made into a film, and the Pulitzer Prize winning Middlesex as well as many short stories and essays.
