Colson Whitehead: Cool Machine

Literary heavyweights converge at the Toronto Reference Library's Bram and Bluma Appel Salon for an unforgettable evening. Two-time Pulitzer Prize winner Colson Whitehead takes the stage to discuss *Cool Machine*, the magnificent final volume of his acclaimed Harlem Trilogy.

What to Expect Whitehead will be in conversation with CBC's Elamin Abdelmahmoud, diving into the journey of bringing this brilliant portrait of 1980s New York to a triumphant conclusion. The conversation will be followed by a live audience Q&A and a book signing, with copies available for purchase on-site.

Practical Details Doors open at 6:00 PM and the event starts at 7:00 PM at the Toronto Reference Library (789 Yonge Street). Admission is free, but registration is required. Note that free tickets are oversold to guarantee capacity, so arriving early is strongly recommended. A selection of beer and wine will be available for purchase at the bar.
