Hey, remember that novel by local author Rudolph Delson, the one that includes a character who grew up in San Jose, and shares those fond memories throughout the story?

Local Author Rudolph Delson Book Reading

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Library
150 E. San Fernando St. - Room 255, 2nd Floor
Sun, May 11 … 2:00 PM - 3:30 PM

San Jose native Rudolph Delson will present his new novel Maynard and Jennica, a love story that the New York Times called “one tiny comic gem after another, one pitch-perfect rendering of the modern moment after another.” Maynard and Jennica tells the story of Maynard Gogarty, a native New Yorker, and Jennica Green, a California transplant, who first meet riding the subway. The story is told in the distinct voices of Maynard, Jennica, and the various characters, dead and alive, human or not, in their lives.

Mr. Delson will read from his novel, discuss it and answer questions. A book-signing will follow.

And while you’re at the author reading at the big downtown library, try to imagine how nice it will be to have our library branch back this summer.
