This Friday is the official Brooklyn launch of The Cavalier, which was translated by our own alum, Jonathan Larson. To celebrate, the author, Natalie Quintane, will be here from France to read in both English and French–that’s a recipe for a book launch that’s not to be missed!

The Cavalier revisits an education scandal from 1968 in a small French town, where a high school philosophy teacher is fired for “corrupting the youth.” Quintane excavates this moment for reexamination, not just as an award-winning poet and writer, but also as a current high school teacher living in that same town.
