On March 19th, join Vol.1 Brooklyn at BookCourt to celebrate the release of D. Foy’s debut novel Made to Break. Here’s how publisher Two Dollar Radio describes Made to Break:
Made to Break is the story of a pack of friends celebrating the holidays at a remote cabin near Lake Tahoe, California. After being stranded by severe weather and a near-fatal accident, the friends are forced to confront the squalor, greed, and sadness from which they’ve spent most of their lives attempting to escape. Made to Break is a melancholic, savage look at relationships and the lies we tell ourselves, suffused with spirited language and humor.
This event will feature readings from:
- D. Foy
- Sarah Gerard

Following the readings, Foy will be interviewed by Vol.1 Brooklyn’s Tobias Carroll.
