If additional tickets become available \, we’ll make the announcement in our weekly newsletter. Sorry\, there i s no waitlist.   \nPresented in partnership with HarperCollins Canada. \ nThe award-winning\, bestselling author of Station Eleven and Sea of Tranq uility returns with a breathtaking novel of doubles\, shadow worlds\, and fractured timelines. We’re thrilled to present Emily St. John Mandel in Vancouver with Exit Party on Monday\, September 21.  \nA man disappears f rom a glittering Los Angeles party\, and a woman—a gunrunner\, an art co llector\, an operative of the State—searches for answers. Emily St. John Mandel unfurls a story that takes us from a future America splintered by civil war to the seaside cliffs of Greece where weapons dealers hide in an elegant resort\, and from the domed city of Paris to a colony on the moon . An unforgettable literary feat\, Exit Party is a novel about the price o f safety\, the perils of the surveillance state\, a requiem for a world no t unlike our own\, and a story of resilience in the face of cataclysmic ch ange. \nSt. John Mandel will speak to this latest masterpiece\; her extrao rdinary body of work\, including anticipated TV adaptations of both Exit P arty and The Glass Hotel\; and more\, in conversation with award-winning j ournalist and literary critic Michelle Cyca. Books will be for sale at the event from Book Warehouse\, a division of Black Bond Books.
