Amy Tan will be speaking at the Free Library of Philadelphia (Central Library) on November 8, 2013 at 7:30 pm about her new novel, The Valley of Amazement.

With a “wonderful eye for what is telling, a fine ear for dialogue, a deep empathy for her subject matter and a guilelessly straightforward way of writing” (New York Times), Amy Tan is the author of the beloved novels The Joy Luck Club, a finalist for the National Book Award and the National Book Critics Circle Award; The Kitchen God's Wife; and The Hundred Secret Senses. She also co-wrote the screenplay for the film adaptation of The Joy Luck Club. Spanning 50 years and two continents, her sweeping new novel plots the lives of three generations of women connected by family secrets and past traumas—and the mystery of painting known as “The Valley of Amazement.” 

Tickets: $25 single or $35 couple (book included)
