# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Powell's Presents: Ann Patchett in Conversation With Willy Vlautin - TICKETED EVENT
- **Event Start and End Date**: Tue, 07 Jul, 2026 at 07:30 pm
- **Event Description**: Ann Patchett, the acclaimed, prize-winning, bestselling author of Bel Canto and Tom Lake, returns with a moving, luminous novel that reminds us of the sweetness and impermanence of life and the power of connection to defy time. When Daphne Fuller and her husband Jonathan visit the Metropolitan Museum of Art, they notice an older, white-haired gentleman following them. The man turns out to be Eddie Triplett, her former stepfather, who had been married to her mother for a little more than a year when Daphne was nine. Now fifty-three, Daphne hasn’t seen Eddie for many years, not since the fateful event that changed the direction of both their lives. Meeting again, time falls away; while their relationship was brief, it had a profound impact on them both, and now that they are reunited, they have no intention of ever being separated again. Whistler (Harper) is a story about two adults looking back over the choices they made and the choices that were made for them. It’s a story about bravery, memory, the often small yet consequential moments that define our lives, and the endless stream of loss that in time comes for us all. Beautiful in its simplicity, it is ultimately about how love endures and how the feeling of being known by one other person, even for a short period of time, can change everything. Patchett will be joined in conversation by Willy Vlautin, author of The Left and the Lucky.

Please note: Tickets for this event are $40 (before service charges) and include admission, as well as one hardcover copy of Patchett’s Whistler. Books distributed at event.
