The Orphan Master’s Son

Presented By
Adam Johnson

Short story writer and novelist Adam Johnson discusses his work in a public conversation with local author Whitney Terrell. Known for his “vaguely Blade Runner–esque visions of a cluttered, anaerobic American culture,” Johnson has published the short story collection Emporium and the novel Parasites Like Us. His latest novel is The Orphan Master’s Son.

The Writers at Work series is organized by Terrell, and co-sponsored by the Writers at Work Roundtable and the UMKC English Department.
