Leif Enger discusses and signs I CHEERFULLY REFUSE

Please join us as we welcome Leif Enger, author of I Cheerfully Refuse, on Wednesday, April 3rd at 6PM for a signing and discussion. Informed by traditional adventure stories, this is a timely and engaging novel written with a beautiful combination of infectious humor and vivid characters. While jostling with serious themes, I Cheerfully Refuse never loses its glorious optimism.
