Valentine’s Fall

If returning to your hometown after a long absence was an emotionally straightforward process, would the world have as many great bluegrass songs? Not unlike a master mountain mandolin player, award-winning author Cary Fagan wrestles with such emotional fallout without breaking a driving pace in his latest novel, Valentine’s Fall (Cormorant Books).

Fagan will have a lively conversation with celebrated illustrator Gerry Clement. Then it’s time to roll back the carpets and kick off your penny loafers! Our city’s premier bluegrass band, The Foggy Hogtown Boys will perform a live set guaranteed to keep your toes tapping ‘til dawn.
