The Bailey Library in downtown Winthrop will host award-winning novelist and registered Maine guide Paul Doiron on Wednesday, August 27 at 6:30 p.m.
Doiron will read from and discuss his latest book, “Skin and Bones,” which Publishers Weekly called “exciting,” “evocative,” and “clever.” This newest release is the sixteenth installment in his acclaimed Mike Bowditch series of crime novels set in the Maine woods.
The series began with “The Poacher's Son,” which won both the Barry Award and the Strand Critics Award for Best First Novel. His follow-up novel, “Trespasser,” won the Maine Literary Award, became an American Booksellers Association Indie Bestseller, and was praised by Booklist as a “masterpiece of high-octane narrative.”
Doiron is Editor Emeritus of Down East magazine and a native Mainer. He holds an English degree from Yale University and an MFA in creative writing from Emerson College. He is a former member of the Maine Arts Commission and past Chair of the Maine Humanities Council. He lives with his wife, Kristen Lindquist, on a trout stream along Maine’s coast.
