SUMMARY:Author Reading with Suzy Vitello and Michael Keefe at Sellwood Community House
DESCRIPTION:Suzy Vitello, author of Bitterroot: A Novel, will be reading from her novel alongside author Michael Keefe (All Her Loved Ones, Encoded) and signing books at Sellwood Community House on January 13th, 2025 from 6:30pm-8pm. Copies of Bitterroot will be available to purchase at the event from Annie Bloom’s Bookstore!\nEVENT INFORMATION:\nAuthor Talk & Signing with Suzy Vitello\nJanuary 13th, 6:30-8:00pm\nSellwood Community House\n1436 SE Spokane Street\nPortland, OR  97202\nFor more information, visit Sellwood Community House’s site here.\nAbout Bitterroot:\nA forensic artist confronts a crime against her own family, while MAGA politics, racism and violence rage in a small town in the Bitterroot Mountains of Idaho.\nSet in the fictional town of Steeplejack, nestled in the Bitterroot Mountains, Hazel Mackenzie provides law enforcement with sketch art and victim reconstruction following suspected crimes. Hazel is catapulted from observer to participant when her husband dies in an accident and then soon after, her gay twin brother Kento is shot by a member of Steeplejack’s growing anti-LGBTQ community during a gender reveal party for his child.\nHazel soon discovers her husband wasn’t who she thought he was. She uncovers hidden family secrets about her grandparents’ forced internment during World War II, mirroring the same racism and prejudice that threatens to strip Kento and his husband of their basic rights to their baby. As physical violence charges up her driveway and engulfs her life, Hazel battles for herself, her brother, and a town torn apart by hate. And somehow during all this, she stumbles on a different kind of love and a more courageous way to live her life.\n\nAbout Suzy Vitello:\nSuzy Vitello writes and lives in Portland, Oregon with her husband and her dog and occasionally one or more of their five kids. She holds an MFA from Antioch, Los Angeles, and has been a recipient of an Oregon Literary Arts grant. Her previous novels include Faultland, The Moment Before and the YA Empress Chronicles series.\n
