Description
We’ll try not to fangirl. When we first heard about Caro Claire Burke’s debut novel, Yesteryear, about a social media influencer and “tradwife” who wakes up one morning living 170 years in the past, we immediately reached out to her publisher to bring her to Calgary! Actor Anne Hathaway was smitten too: she optioned the book before pub date. So we’re thrilled that Burke—who co-hosts Diabolical Lies, a podcast we’re also somewhat obsessed with—is coming to Wordfest on her only Canadian tour date. The conversation, hosted by Paula Turcotte, includes an audience Q&A and book signing.
Wordfest showcases the world’s most intriguing authors (in every genre!) from January through December. For more information about this show and others coming up soon to Calgary, visit wordfest.com.
