Join us for a celebration of Alyson Waters's translation of The Monroe Girls by Antoine Volodine. Tess Lewis will join Alyson in conversation. 

For readers of Thomas Pynchon, a conspiratorial adventure through a bleak future where the dead (and their political factions) never really die, from one of France’s most visionary writers. In this novel, Volodine ruminates on identity, surveillance, life after death, and love (which, alas, does not conquer all). An urgent and blistering tale, beautifully rendered with Volodine’s distinct pathos and humor.
