Join us at the library Saturday, May 18th at 2 p.m. for a talk with author E. Lily Yu. Due to author’s request, this will be an in-person event ONLY. Books will be available for purchase and signing.

E. Lily Yu will discuss her novel On Fragile Waves, which received the 2022 Washington State Book Award for fiction and was praised by the New York Times Book Review as “devastating and perfect.” Critics have described her newly released short story collection Jewel Box as an inventive, boundary-breaking trove of fantastical treasures.

Yu received the Artist Trust LaSalle Storyteller Award in 2017, the Astounding Award for Best New Writer in 2012, was a finalist for the Hugo, Nebula, Locus, Sturgeon and World Fantasy Awards.
