SUMMARY:Beyond the Page with Percival Everett
DESCRIPTION:Industrious\, irreverent\, humble–though he may deny the 
 accusation–Percival Everett\, like his fiction\, defies categorization. 
 His most recent novel\, James\, earned both the Pulitzer Prize for fiction 
 and the National Book Award\, and his 2001 novel Erasure inspired the film 
 American Fiction\, which received the Academy Award for Best Adapted 
 Screenplay in 2024. Despite these accomplishments\, he remains devoted to 
 reviewing his own work critically\, and indeed his writing process involves 
 intensive research and revision. Tune in for our conversation with Everett 
 to get a glimpse beyond the page. WTTW's Brandis Friedman will join Everett 
 in conversation.\n\nREGISTER HERE for this Zoom program. A recording will 
 be available for a limited time on the Illinois Libraries Present YouTube 
 channel\, and a link will be emailed to all registrants. Please note that 
 you must be a Glencoe Public Library cardholder to register for this 
 program.\n\nPercival Everett’s other titles include Dr. No\, The Trees 
 (finalist for the Booker Prize and the PEN/Faulkner Award for Fiction)\, 
 Telephone (finalist for the Pulitzer Prize)\, So Much Blue\, and I Am Not 
 Sidney Poitier.\n\nBrandis Friedman is a writer and anchor for WTTW’s 
 Chicago Tonight and Chicago Tonight: Black Voices\, and also serves as a 
 champion for libraries.\n\nJoin Meeting: https://bit.ly/ILPPercivalEverett
