Book/Plate is a literary/culinary series in partnership with Greenlight Bookstore, which pairs new books with complementary cuisine for a unique dinner with the author.
In June, Book/Plate hosts internationally acclaimed Israeli author Etgar Keret, whose novels and story collections include The Nimrod Flipout and The Bus Driver Who Wanted To Be God, and who has been described as “a genius” (New York Times), “astonishing” (Los Angeles Times), and “brilliant” (Salman Rushdie). Keret’s newest work, The Seven Good Years (published June 16 by Riverhead), is his first nonfiction book: a memoir that is as charming, hilarious and moving as his fiction. Peck’s evokes the book’s setting with a contemporary Mediterranean Israeli menu (completely vegetarian, as is Keret), with drinks provided by Brooklyn Brewery. Keret will talk informally about his work and chat with diners as he signs his new book (included in ticket price). Join us in the back patio at Peck’s under the Brooklyn afternoon sun to celebrate the good years with one of our greatest contemporary writers.
