“Coup de Foudre” Book Discussion | SF

Submitted by the Event Organizer

“Ken Kalfus’ Coup de Foudre is a collection of short stories that includes the full text of the title novella that first appeared in Harper’s Magazine. Recalling news events with irony and compassion, Kalfus writes the ultimately tragic story about the president of an international lending institution accused of sexually assaulting a housekeeper in a New York hotel. The fifteen stories that follow vary boldly in theme, setting, and tone but all share the distinctive humor and intellect found throughout Kalfus’ award-winning work.

Ken Kalfus and Rachel Monroe are current Writers in Residence at Headlands Center for the Arts.
