January 28 @ 3:00 pm - 4:30 pm
Scott Alexander Hess will be reading from his new fiction A Season in Delhi, followed by a conversation with author Dana Burnell (The Tame Man). The novella was called “a queer poetic experience that is reminiscent of E.M. Forster’s A Passage to India, but much more erotic! “- Andrew Rimby.
Copies of A Season in Delhi (Rebel Satori Press, 2023, paperback, $14) will be available for purchase at the event. To reserve a copy please write to us at contact@bgsqd.com with “please reserve A Season in Delhi” in the subject line.
