We’re tremendous admirers of Man V. Nature, the debut collection from Diane Cook. The stylistic range found in these stories encompasses everything from minute dissections of childhood friendships to suburban nightmares to flat-out horror, as a group of co-workers are pursued by a monster. We’ve just signed on to host the collection’s launch, which will take place next week at powerHouse Arena. Cook will read from Man V. Nature, and will then be in conversation with Lincoln Michel.

This event will take place on Friday, November 14th, beginning at 7:00 pm. powerHouse Arena is located at 37 Main Street, Brooklyn, NY. You can find more information here; you can RSVP via Facebook here.
