Co-sponsored by the NC Writers Network
NC Writers’ Network board member Jason Mott will present about his New York Times bestseller, The Returned. He holds an MFA from the University of North Carolina at Wilmington, his poetry and fiction have appeared in various literary journals, and he was nominated for a 2009 Pushcart Prize award and Entertainment Weekly listed him as one of their “10 New Hollywood: Next Wave” people to watch. The Returned is being published in more than thirteen languages.
The Returned is Jason’s debut novel and has been optioned by Brad Pitt’s production company, Plan B. The series aired last March on ABC network under the title Resurrection. Harold and Lucille Hargrave's eight-year-old son, Jacob, died tragically in 1966. In their old age they've settled comfortably into life without him … until one day Jacob mysteriously appears on their doorstep—flesh and blood, still eight years old. Join us for the book club discussion and then join us afterwards for lunch as we continue the conversation with the author.
