May 2023 Box
Dan Chaon
Momentum
Another month - another incredible featured author. This time we nabbed Dan Chaon and his latest work, Sleepwalk, for our final box of the spring. It's a truly unique novel from a truly unique man. For a number of years, Dan was a creative writing professor at Oberlin College - a highly prestigious program that served as a teaching ground for huge talents like Ishmael Beah, Edan Lepucki and Lena Dunham (of Girls fame). We sat down with him for an in depth interview where he waxed poetic on all things writing. So much insight! To sweeten the deal, we also got some fantastic content from the ultra-talented Jennifer De Leon. And don't forget about he gifts - amazing stuff abound in this box.
