Author(s) and Guest(s)

Tom Wolfe

Few writers are more revered, iconic, and instantly recognizable than Tom Wolfe.  The author of more than a dozen books, including the bestselling contemporary nonfiction classics The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test and The Right Stuff, Wolfe’s novels, The Bonfire of the Vanities, A Man in Full, and I Am Charlotte Simmons, have sold over 3.6 million copies.  When Tom Wolfe publishes a new novel, it’s more than literary news; it’s a cultural event—especially when it is set in the cultural mash-up that is Miami.  Wolfe’s latest is Back to Blood (Little, Brown, $30.00), a thrill-ride through the Magic City featuring Wolfe’s on-the-scene reporting and a cast of characters worthy of . . . a Tom Wolfe novel.  Join a literary giant as he brings his white suit and his big, panoramic chronicle of the new America right here where it began, and where it belongs.  Following the presentation and book signing, be sure to stay for a screening of the documentary tracing Wolfe’s up-close-and-personal research for Back to Blood
