NOVELIST KEVIN FENTON TO READ AT BLUE HERON

Tuesday, December 2 | 7 pm
Blue Heron Coffeehouse

As part of the Laureate Writers Series, novelist Kevin Fenton will read from his new book, Cyan Magenta Yellow Black at the Blue Heron Coffeehouse on December 2 nd at 7 p.m. The reading will be followed by a Q&A, book signing, and an Open Mic that is open to all.
The event is free and open to the public.

Kevin Fenton is the author of Merit Badges, which won the AWP Prize for the Novel, and Leaving Rollingstone, which Patricia Hampl called “the most important memoir to come out of the Midwest (or anywhere) in years.”

His essays on advertising design have appeared in a wide range of prestigious publications. Fenton graduated from Winona H.S. in 1977. He holds degrees from Beloit College, the University of Minnesota Law School, and the University of Minnesota MFA program. He lives in St, Paul with his wife, Ellen, and his greyhound, Evie.

Charles Baxter says that Cyan Magenta Yellow Black progresses from “darkness and distrust” to “the light of community and generosity.”… This is a beautiful book—smart, tenderhearted, and wonderfully written.”

This event is co-sponsored by the Blue Heron Coffeehouse, Chapter 2 Books, Richard and Sara Ricker, and Laurie Lucas.
