The Revised Fundamentals of Caregiving (Algonquin Books)
Jonathan Evison, author of the novels West of Here and All About Lulu (both Skylight staff picks), returns to Skylight to read and sign his new book, The Revised Fundamentals of Caregiving.
“The Revised Fundamentals of Caregiving is the funniest and
most tough-minded novel I’ve read in a long time. Jonathan Evison is a
great lyrical talent who deserves to be better known, and this is his
best novel yet. You owe it to yourself to read it.” —Darin Strauss,
author of Half a Life
“Jonathan Evison is a gifted raconteur with a wicked sense of humor
and an unflagging empathy for humankind in all its sad, foible-filled
magnificence. In The Revised Fundamentals of Caregiving, his myriad talents are displayed in full bloom.” —Patrick DeWitt, author of The Sisters Brothers
