The Central Wisconsin Book Festival welcomes internationally known, bestselling author - and one of Wisconsin's own - Nickolas Butler to the McMillan Memorial Library in Wisconsin Rapids!
Butler will join us to read from his most recent, riveting novel "Godspeed," about three construction workers who get entangled in a dangerous plan to finish a project against an impossible deadline. Butler is the author of four novels and one collection of short stories, he's received many awards at home and abroad, starting with his debut novel "Shotgun Lovesongs."
This year marks his first appearances at the Central Wisconsin Book Festival, and a Q&A and signing will follow his reading. Butler will also appear at the Whitewater Music Hall in Wausau on Friday night with author Quan Barry.
Free and open to the public, no registration required.
