Michele Zackheim, Jesse Browner & Kent Carroll

Independent publisher Europa Editions is well known for distinctive literary fiction, high-end mystery and noir, and narrative non-fiction from around the world. Inspired by the story of a distant cousin who was murdered in Paris in 1937, award-winning author Michele Zackheim’s Last Train to Paris is a gripping epic about a female American reporter who writes for the Paris Courier in the 1930s. Undertaking an assignment in the Berlin press office, she is happy and in love – until Kristallnacht and the growing threat of Nazism. When World War II is declared, Americans are forced to leave the country and she must make an agonizing choice: who will go with her on the last train to Paris? Tonight’s event celebrating Michele’s new book is introduced by Europa’s publisher Kent Carroll and begins with a guest reading of new work by fellow Europa Editions author Jesse Browner (author of Everything Happens Today). Michele reads from The Last Train to Paris and discusses her work with Carroll.
