SUMMARY:Easy Rawlins and Beyond: In Conversation with Walter Mosley
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the Wende Museum on October 8th to celebrate the release of Walter Mosley’s newest novel\, Gray Dawn! \nWalter will discuss his work\, iconic characters\, and influential career alongside novelist Gary Phillips. Don’t miss two of the biggest and best crime fiction authors working today in this historic venue! \nAbout the participants: \nWalter Mosley is one of America’s most celebrated writers. He was given the 2020 National Book Award’s Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters\, named a Grand Master of the Mystery Writers of America\, and honored with the Anisfield-Wolf Award\, a Grammy\, a PEN USA Lifetime Achievement Award\, the Robert Kirsch Award\, numerous Edgars\, and several NAACP Image Awards. His work has been translated into twenty-five languages. He has published fiction and nonfiction in The New Yorker\, Playboy\, and The Nation. As an executive producer\, he adapted his novel The Last Days of Ptolemy Grey for AppleTV+. He co-wrote the adaptation of his novel The Man in My Basement to stream on Hulu\, and he served as a writer and executive producer for FX’s Snowfall. He divides his time between Brooklyn and Santa Monica. \nGary Phillips has published novels\, comics\, novellas\, short stories and edited or co-edited several anthologies\, including the Anthony-winning The Obama Inheritance: Fifteen Stories of Conspiracy Noir. Almost thirty years after its publication\, his debut\, Violent Spring\, was named one of the essential crime novels of Los Angeles. He was also a writer and co-producer on Snowfall\, a show streaming on Hulu about crack and the CIA in 1980s South Central\, where he grew up. \nAbout Gray Dawn: \nIn this thrilling mystery from “master of craft and narrative” Walter Mosley (National Book Foundation)\, Detective Easy Rawlins has settled into the happy rhythm of his new life when a dark siren from his past returns and threatens to destroy the peace he’s fought for. \nThe name Easy Rawlins stirs excitement in the hearts of readers and fear in the hearts of his foes. His success has bought him a thriving detective agency\, with its first female detective; a remote home\, shared with children and pets and lovers\, high atop the hills overlooking gritty Los Angeles; and more trouble\, more problems\, and more threat to those whom he loves. In other words\, he’s still beset on all sides. \nA number of below-the-law powerbrokers plead with Easy to locate a mysterious\, dangerous woman—Lutisha James\, though she’s gone by another name that Easy will immediately recognize. 1970s Los Angeles is a transient city of delicate\, violent balances\, and Lutisha has disturbed that. She also has a secret that will upend Easy’s own life\, painfully closer to home.
