About the event

Fall Feast of Words: Deborah Willis

Deborah Willis’ darkly funny debut novel braids reality TV and the climate crisis with billionaire-sponsored space travel. Lead character Amber enters a reality TV contest whose winners will be the first permanent couple on Mars. As she gets closer to her goal of leaving the planet, Amber’s long-time boyfriend Kevin has to reckon with the unnerving possibility of being left behind. We’re excited to welcome Deborah to the library for a thought-provoking discussion about what we’re willing to do to find meaning in our lives.
