New Release: Norah Labiner Presents Morocco in conversation with Mike Wisti

About this event

Join us at the University Club of Saint Paul (420 Summit Ave) on Thursday, October 15th at 7 PM for an author event with Norah Labiner, presenting her latest novel, Morocco! Morocco takes place in Chicago, the turn of the 21st century. Our narrator—always there and never entirely present—recounts her decades-long relationship with the heiress, Katherine Stern.

Sometimes, despite their estrangement, she has even seen Katherine as a friend. Inspired by the classic story Washington Square by Henry James, Norah Labiner reimagines the prolific tale. Moving through wintery Michigan avenue to the creeping mansions of the rich to the world of melodrama, ghosts, and girls. Morocco confr
