The Library Foundation and Texas Book Festival launch a new author series! In Conversation pairs writers for intimate discussions of their work. The inaugural event features Katie Gutierrez and Rubén Degollado whose novels explore families encountering folkloric curses, secret double lives, and the generational passage of time.
Gutierrez’s debut literary novel, “More Than You’ll Ever Know,” follows a woman caught leading a double life after one husband murders the other, and the true-crime writer who becomes obsessed with telling her story. Degollado’s debut, “The Family Izquierdo,” weaves together the lives of three generations of a Mexican American family bound by love, and a curse.
