Anyone who was lucky enough to hear Patrick Radden Keefe speak at this year’s Unbound Book Festival will already know how brilliant he is. His first two books are classic examples of the very best kind of investigative reporting - entertaining, informative, and liable to make you mad. HIs latest, Rogues, is a collection of astonishing profiles that he has written for The New Yorker over the past several years. We can’t wait to dive in and discuss it - both the subjects themselves, who are fascinating, and also the extraordinary craft that Keefe uses to render his subjects so alive on the page.

Please note that due to certain scheduling challenges we’ll be meeting on Wednesday, August 31 at 6:30, rather than the last Thursday of the month. Hope to see you there! Attendance is free - we just ask that you purchase the book from us!
