Description:

Busboys Books and Busboys and Poets Takoma welcome Janet Sarbanes to present her new book The Protester Has Been Released.

Populated by wise animals and hapless humans, Protester brilliantly evokes an end-of-the-world feeling that is equal parts dread and hilarity. In ten precisely rendered stories and a novella featuring the American president’s daughter, Sarbanes takes on the big questions with gallows humor: What is freedom? What is love? What is art? And what does it matter now? Declared "a profound book" that is "necessary to the times we are living in now" Sarbanes is sure to bring her characteristic charm and wit to this Busboys and Poets Takoma event.
