About this event

11. Up Next: Debuts to Watch

We take great joy in spotlighting debut authors at the Festival; they get to introduce their remarkable work to an enthusiastic and well-read audience, and you get the opportunity to meet them in a more intimate venue, before their inevitable rise to fame. These three authors are already garnering rave reviews. Théodora Armstrong’s Welcome to Sunny Town, about a directionless art school graduate who moves to Japan to teach ESL, has earned her comparisons to Elif Batuman and Ottessa Moshfegh. Jane Park’s Inheritance is a moving Korean-Canadian immigrant story, and a most anticipated book according to Bustle, The Millions, Book Riot, and CBC. And Jess Gibson shares beguiling short stories in The Good Eye; André Alexis called it “the best first collection of stories I’ve read in years.”

Moderated by Marian Botsford Fraser.
