Join us for an intimate evening in the Salt Sheds Three Top Lounge with author Xochitl Gonzalez as she discusses her newest novel Last Night in Brooklyn, a captivating story about a young woman whose life becomes ensnared in her glamorous neighbors secret past. Set in 2007 against the backdrop of a potentially life-changing presidential election and a looming once-in-a-generation fiscal crisis, Last Night in Brooklyn explores the dark compromise of the American Dream for people of color living, unknowingly, in the twilight of a cultural moment. Its a story about everything money can buy and the destruction of what it cant.
