Andre Dubus III, the author of the New York Times bestseller and Oprah’s Book Club selection House of Sand and Fog, reads from and discusses his new novel The Garden of Last Days. This big-hearted, painful, page-turning novel, set in the seamy underside of American life, juxtaposes lust for domination with hunger for connection, sexual violence with family love. It is filled with the same psychological tension, depth, and realism that characterized House of Sand and Fog-and an even greater sense of the dark and anguished places in the human heart

Wow – a wonderful book. The way the characters were woven together was marvelous.
