Lit Chat Interview with Gabrielle Zevin

This Lit Chat Interview is a 60-minute program consisting of a 40-minute conversation between author Gabrielle Zevin and interviewer Nikesha Elise Williams followed by 20 minutes of audience Q&A. A book signing will follow, with books available for sale on site from Femme Fire Books.

The entrance for this program will be at 303 N. Laura St. Street parking around the Main Library is free on Saturdays, and parking in the Library Garage at 33 W. Duval St. is available for a fee.

Gabrielle Zevin is the internationally bestselling author of several novels, including Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, a New York Times bestseller, Jimmy Fallon Book Club pick, and Amazon's #1 Book of 2022. Her thoughtful, funny events bring audiences into her writing process as she shares her techniques for writing unforgettable characters, how games are integrally linked to story, and the irreplaceable relationships forged in local literary communities. Zevin’s novel The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry was recently adapted into a major motion picture. 

This Lit Chat Interview is presented as part of Jax Book Fest 2024.
