Think of it as speed dating with the classics! From the Odyssey to The Bell Jar to Frankenstein, it’s unanimous: old hits are cool again. So we asked 10 bookish experts—Karma Brown, Patricia Finn, Tayari Jones, Jennifer Lambert, Catherine Leroux, Canisia Lubrin, Liz Nugent, Carol Off, Ruth Ozeki, and Stephanie Sinclair—to celebrate their favourite backlist title in this exclusive noon-hour show hosted by Shelley Youngblut. The recommended classics will be available at the festival pop-up bookstores.Book signing, informal chats, and noshing to follow.
