Description
Stories abound of iconic editors who wrestle shaggy manuscripts into sleek, best-selling books. Anne Collins, Executive Editor at Random House Canada, is among these, editor to some of the world’s top writers, including Julian Barnes, Robert Macfarlane, Richard Powers, Michelle Good, Chris Hadfield, Linden MacIntyre, Eden Robinson, Ian Williams, and more.
Join Collins in conversation with one of her writers, Merilyn Simonds, for a frank and freewheeling discussion of the progress of a book from manuscript to bookstore shelves—laced with stories of great books past, present, and future.
Please note: This event replaces "Books & Bites" with Ben McNally, who had to cancel with great regret.
