Emily St. John Mandel in Conversation

September 21st at 7:30 PM at the Vancouver Playhouse

Thank you to HarperCollins Canada for supporting Emily St. John Mandel's appearance in Vancouver.

The award-winning, bestselling author of Station Eleven and Sea of Tranquility returns with a breathtaking novel of doubles, shadow worlds, and fractured timelines. We’re thrilled to present Emily St. John Mandel in Vancouver with Exit Party on Monday, September 21. 

A man disappears from a glittering Los Angeles party, and a woman—a gunrunner, an art collector, an operative of the State—searches for answers. Emily St. John Mandel unfurls a story that takes us from a future America splintered by civil war to the seaside cliffs of Greece where weapons dealers hide in an elegant resort, and from the domed city of Paris to a colony on the moon. An unforgettable literary feat, Exit Party is a novel about the price of safety, the perils of the surveillance state, a requiem for a world not unlike our own, and a story of resilience in the face of cataclysmic change.

St. John Mandel will speak to this latest masterpiece; her extraordinary body of work, including anticipated TV adaptations of both Exit Party and The Glass Hotel; and more, in conversation with award-winning journalist and literary critic Michelle Cyca. Books will be for sale at the event from Book Warehouse, a division of Black Bond Books.
