Moderating is novelist Melodie Winawer – a physician and fellow neuroscientist who’s delved into this topic before with Genova – whose latest work of historical fiction is Anticipation: A Novel. \nWith thanks to major sponsor

SUMMARY:Jonathan Evison\, Jess Walter\, Jonathan Ames & Antoine Wilson: A Conversation
DESCRIPTION:This program is being livestreamed from MDC’s Wolfson Campus. For more information about this in-person program\, please visit MiamiBookFair.com. \nJonathan Evison’s Small World: A Novel is set against such iconic backdrops as the California gold rush\, the development of the transcontinental railroad\, and a speeding train of modern-day strangers forced together by fate. In exploring their lives and those of their ancestors\, Small World chronicles 170 years of American nation-building from numerous points of view across place and time – and asks whether our nation has made good on its promises. In The Angel of Rome: And Other Stories\, Jess Walter tackles the modern condition in a dazzling range of voices\, backdrops\, and situations. A teenage girl tries to live up to the image of her beautiful\, missing mother. A shy 21-old studying Latin in Rome finds himself face-to-face with the Italian actress of his adolescent dreams. And an elderly couple confronts the writer eavesdropping on their conversation. In Jonathan Ames’ The Wheel of Doll: A Novel\, Happy Doll is a charming if occasionally inexpert private detective. A veteran of both the Navy and LAPD\, he supplements his meager income as a P.I. by working at a local Thai spa that offers “special services.” But he’s out of his depth with one violent patron – and then an old friend from his days as a cop shows up at his door with a bullet in his gut. And in Antoine Wilson’s Mouth to Mouth: A Novel\, our narrator listens as Jeff Cook\, a former classmate\, tells him how his life changed course after he resuscitated a drowning man. Afterward\, Jeff needed to learn more about him – and as he did\, the paths of the two men come together and diverge in dizzying ways\, until the novel’s staggering ending.
