The David M. Hunt Library and Out in the Corner will host local author Eric Schnall, in conversation with Dan Shaw, on Saturday, June 14th at 5 pm at the library. Eric is a Tony Award-winning producer and author of the novel “I Make Envy on Your Disco” which was the winner of the Barbara DiBernard Prize in fiction. "I Make Envy on Your Disco" tells the story of Sam Singer, a New York art advisor, who travels to Berlin for a gallery opening and finds himself drawn to the city's history, energy and culture. The novel explores Sam's midlife anxieties as he encounters new connections, friendships, and possibilities in a city that is both a reflection of his own journey and a place of vibrant cultural rediscovery. Books will be available for sale and signing, and refreshments will be served.
