novelist CHRIS BACHELDER reading & book signing for "U.S.!" Tuesday, March 21st at 7 pm
Upton Sinclair is back from the dead - over and over again. In "U.S.!," a darkly comic and wildly inventive new novel, Chris Bachelder creates a world where the muckraker and author of The Jungle is periodically brought back to life by leftists desperate for leadership - only to be gunned down (and once harpooned!) by right wingers seeking fame, fortune, and American business as usual.
Chris Bachelder, a contributor to McSweeney's, is the author of "Bear v. Shark." "U.S.! is a mad contraption of a novel." - Michael Chabon. "Bachelder is a pyrotechnic comic genius." - Heidi Julavits.
