Frannie James presents 'The Sylvan Hotel: A Seattle Story'
Join Page 2 Books and the Burien Public Library for an evening with local author Frannie James celebrating her new book The Sylvan Hotel: A Seattle Story, out now from Hinton Publishing. It's Seattle in the 90's and at The Sylvan Hotel polished mahogany walls keep secrets, rock stars slip by in low-lit spaces, and the switchboard crackles with drama. Everyone's trying to get somewhere else; including Joann who is 23 and works at reception to pay her bills while she figures out her career. Witty, nostalgic, and filled with the electric hum of youth, The Sylvan Hotel is a love letter to the people and places that shape us, whether we mean to stay or not.
This free author talk will be followed by a signing. Reasonable accommodation for people with disabilities is available by request. Email access@kcls.org at least seven days before the event.
Registration is not required, but helps us adequately prepare for attendance. If you'd like to RSVP, please do so at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/frannie-james-presents-the-sylvan-hotel-a-seattle-story-tickets-1974503209251?aff=oddtdtcreator
