RICHARD HOFFMAN READING & SIGNING
A memoir about his father, his children, and himself that delves into the American psyche, Love & Fury by Richard Hoffman provides a raw and unfaltering look at our complicated humanity. Andre Dubus III (Townie) calls Love & Fury “a soul-saving joy” going on to say “what makes this book so important is what Hoffman excavates here layer by layer: how shaped and often shackled we are by the past, one that is bloody, racist, patriarchal, and as class-stratified as ever.” A poet, fiction writer, and memoirist, Hoffman is Writer-in-Residence at Emerson College and currently serves as Chair of PEN New England.
