Book Talk: Samuel Ashworth, The Death and Life of August Sweeney
Saturday, May 3 @ 5pm
The Golden Hour Rum Room, St. Michaels
FREE
Legendary chef August Sweeney was an enormous man with an appetite for excess. When he collapses at his restaurant, Dr. Maya Zhu—a guarded, intense autopsist—is summoned to investigate. “It is through Zhu’s peculiar, singular voice that we come to know the dead chef intimately,” writes Marin Cogan for the Washington Post; “Like an excellent meal, the memory of Ashworth’s debut novel will linger after it’s finished. It deserves to be savored.” Ashworth will be in conversation with chef Jordan Lloyd of Hambleton House at The Golden Hour Rum Room in St. Michaels. This event is free, but seating is limited and reservations are required. Presented in partnership with Shore Lit, Lyon Rum, and Book Hounds.
