Madison novelist Chloe Benjamin will join us to share information about her journey in becoming a writer of fiction!  She is the author of two novels, The Anatomy of Dreams and The Immortalists and will be interviewed by three members of the Alt-Pinney Book Club, all of whom have read both novels and loved them!  In addition, A Room of One’s Own Bookstore will be at this event with both of Chloe’s books available for purchase.  Best of all, they can be signed by the author!  Purchases may be made with credit or debit cards.

A Barnes & Noble Discover Great New Writers selection, Library Reads favorite, and #1 Indie Next Pick, The Immortalists was named a best book of 2018 by NPR, The Washington Post, Entertainment Weekly, and others. The Anatomy of Dreams received the Edna Ferber Fiction Book Award and was long listed for the 2014 Center for Fiction First Novel Prize.

Originally from San Francisco, CA, Chloe is a graduate of Vassar College and received her M.F.A. in fiction at the University of Wisconsin. Her work has been translated into over thirty languages. She lives with her husband and two Maine Coon cats in Madison where she is at work on her third novel.
