Acclaimed literary voice Tayari Jones, whose last novel, Silver Sparrow, was named an NEA Big Read and chosen as a Best Book of 2011 by O, The Oprah Magazine, Library Journal, and Slate, comes to Memphis in celebration of the launch of the much-anticipated An American Marriage, published in 2018 by Algonquin Books of Chapel Hill.

Jones will read from the novel and be in-conversation with Memphis novelist and C.S.L.A. co-founding director Jamey Hatley. A book signing will follow, with our friends from Novel, Memphis’ newest independent bookstore.
