Carmichael's is delighted to host a reading by up-and-coming literary star and former Axton Fellow at the University of Louisville Lauren Groff. Her first novel, The Monsters of Templeton, has just been released in paperback. Groff will visit while touring for her new book of stories, Delicate Edible Birds. Each of the book's nine tales, although vastly different in style and structure, reveal her gift for storytelling and her ability to make the ordinary appear magical. Don't miss this chance to hear from a talented young writer and rising literary star.
