Join us for an enlightening conversation between Danny Goodman, author of the 2024 book, Amerikaland, in conversation w/ Richard Mirabella, author of Brother & Sister Enter the Forest. We are excited to host Goodman, whose recent work was called a “contemplative, richly imagined, and occasionally thrilling exploration of the near future,” by Kirkus Reviews, and “virtually flawless” by Independent Book Review.

Books will be available for purchase, and Goodman will be available to autograph them after the talk.

Danny Goodman’s writing has appeared in various publications, and he was the recipient of a writer-in-residence fellowship from Rivendell. He earned his MFA in Fiction from the University of New Orleans, where he was a two-time winner of the Samuel Mockbee Award. His award-winning debut novel, Amerikaland, is out now from LEFTOVER Books. He lives in the Hudson Valley with his wife, a book editor, and their editorial cats. Currently at work on a new novel, he is badly in need of a nap.

Aaron Jacobs is the author of the novels Time Will Break the World and The Abundant Life. His stories and essays have appeared in Tin House, Alaska Quarterly Review, Crime Reads, Atticus Review, and elsewhere. In his fiction, Aaron explores the wayward American approach to life, which means he'll never run out of material. He studied writing at the University of Maryland, the 92nd Street Y, Sackett Street Writers' Workshop, Wesleyan Writers Conference, and the Tin House Summer Workshop. He lives mostly in the Catskills with his wife, Katie, and their dog, Monty.
