Whös really telling this story? That¿s the mystery at the heart of Danielle Mémoire¿s novel, which opens with a writer on stage at a public reading¿a public reading that isn¿t one, because she never reads a word, much to the audience¿s annoyance. When an audience member finally heckles her, the writer¿s response sets off a chain reaction of nested stories that tumble one after another like a row of dominoes. Each storyteller in the series (most are writers at public readings) builds on what¿s come before while often radically changing its meaning. Along the way, we encounter fatal stepladders, a painter obsessed with a transom window, a lovestruck dog-walker, and a lost cat restored to its owners through divine intervention. Playful, thought-provoking, and utterly unique, Public Reading Followed by Discussion defies classification and invites every reader to join the game.
