Fantasy, science fiction, and horror section at Malaprop's, an independent bookstore in Asheville, NC.
There are many reasons to hate North Carolina’s discriminatory, hysterical, and stupid bathroom bill. So let’s add this one to the list: Malaprop’s, the adored independent bookstore in Asheville, is suffering from a sales slump in the wake of boycotts…

I am hugely socially awkward, especially when I have to speak solo. Today is the launch part for The Body Electric at Malaprop's. I have to speak solo. To counter my fails, I am going to:
Bribe everyone with cupcakes and champagne
Do a trivia type thing so I can just hand people prizes instead of talk
Distract everyone with all the pretty swag
That'll work right? RIGHT? HERE DRINK MORE CHAMPAGNE UNTIL I'M NO LONGER WEIRD
If you want to see this spectacle: tonight, 7pm, Malaprop's, 55 Haywood St., Asheville NC
Reza Aslan was, unsurprisingly, entirely amazing. You can listen to his talk here (and you definitely should)!
Sexual roles aren’t the only things crossed in this spectacular saga of Paris at war. Deadly serious and hilariously gossipy, “Lovers at the Chameleon Club” comes to us as a collection of documents written by people with wildly different perspectives and motives. Even as these characters retain their own personalities in this noisy conversation, Prose fits shards of history together to form a mosaic that only we can see. The interlocking voices — all seductive and unreliable in their own ways — show Paris as it devolves from the decadence and gallows humor of the 1930s to the terror and bravery of the Occupation.
Francine Prose is here tonight at 7PM! This event is free and open to the public. We hope you'll join us!
