7-Day Author Forecast for Nov. 19-25
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

Nov. 19
Brock Clarke. “An Arsonist’s Guide to Writers’ Homes in New England.” 6:30 p.m. at Wordsmith Books in Decatur. With DJ Hacks and music by Sealions. Clarke’s novel is a comic romp that skewers a lot of literary pretensions and shows a major gift. Clarke (pictured above) is so talented I wished the novel was even better, but I enjoyed it thoroughly.
Chris Matthews. Life’s a Campaign: What Politics Has Taught Me About Friendship, Rivalry, a Reputation and Success.” 7 p.m. at the Jimmy Carter Library and Museum. The host of MSNBC’s “Hardball,” well-known for his pathological shyness, signs his new book.
Nov. 25
Jan Karon. “Home to Holly Springs.” 1 p.m. at Borders in Marietta. It’s the popular author’s second stop in metro Atlanta promoting her new book, which shows how popular she is here.
