Words on Wednesday - Alisa Kwitney

Join us on the last Wednesday of every month for Words on Wednesday, a new reading series at Gallery 40 that celebrates the diverse voices of Hudson Valley authors. Each month, an author will share insights into their writing process, read selections from their work, and engage in an hour-long discussion about the craft of storytelling. It’s an intimate and engaging way to connect with local writers and their stories.

Our guest in July is Alisa Kwitney.

Marry a science fiction writer, become science fiction! That’s the law of Greenwich Village in the late 1950s, home of poets, artists, musicians, writers, their put-upon partners—and the extraterrestrial spores that are secretly taking them over! Novelist/comics writer Alisa Kwitney mixes science fiction with period drama and family memoir, featuring stunning art by Belgian artist Mauricet and alternate cover by Bill Koeb.

Come join author Alisa Kwitney, performer Deborah Coconis and friends as they perform a live reading and guide you through some of the artwork from her beatnik meets aliens graphic novel, available for preorder and on sale October 15.
