Lev Grossman, The New York Times bestselling novelist and Time magazine book critic, will present a reading at Washington and Lee University on Wednesday, Nov. 28, at 4 p.m. in the Northen Auditorium, Leyburn Library.

The public is invited at no charge, and there will be a book signing of “The Magicians” and “The Magician King” following the reading.

Grossman is the author of four novels: “Warp” (1997), the international bestseller “Codex” (2004), and The New York Times bestselling installments of his fantasy trilogy, “The Magicians” (2009) and “The Magician King” (2011).  The New Yorker named “The Magicians” one of the best books of 2009 and in 2011 Grossman won the John W. Campbell Award for Best New Writer.

Grossman has written about books and technology for The New York Times. He has also written for Salon, the Wall Street Journal, Wired, Lingua Franca, the Village Voice and The Believer, as well as NPR.

The event is sponsored by the Glasgow Endowment.
