The Byron Society of America in cooperation with the Ticknor Society of Boston will be hosting readings by Benjamin Markovits and Matthew Pearl. Mr. Markovits will read from his new novel, A Quiet Adjustment (W. W. Norton, 2008). The novel is the second in a projected trilogy based on the life and times of Lord Byron. Mr. Pearl will read from his novel The Dante Club (Random House, 2003), based on an episode in the life of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. A conversation between the authors on their common experiences writing literary historical fiction will follow. Both books will be available for purchase and signing.
