An Evening with Europa Editions

Join the author and Europa editors at the Lazarus Is Dead book release party.* In his only New York appearance, Richard Beard will be at 192 Books in conversation with Europa’s Editor in Chief Michael Reynolds. An ingeniously funny and moving novel that disguises itself as biography, LAZARUS IS DEAD recounts the story of a friendship lost and regained. Richard Beard’s brand of storytelling unabashedly turns convention on its head as he draws on biblical sources, historical detail, art and contemporary literature, to throw a spell over his readers that remains unbroken until the final pages of this astonishing story about second chances.
