Thank You Books is thrilled to host Heather Christle for a reading, Q&A, and signing. THE CRYING BOOK is a staff favorite!

Heather Christle is the author of the poetry collections The Difficult Farm; The Trees The Trees, which won the Believer Poetry Award; What Is Amazing; and Heliopause. Her poems have appeared in The New Yorker, London Review of Books, Poetry, and many other journals. She teaches creative writing at Emory University in Atlanta. The Crying Book is her first book of nonfiction.

The New York Times has called THE CRYING BOOK “indelible” and “lyrical” while The New Yorker hails it as a “nimble...thoughtful, often moving rumination on the expression of emotions beyond the reach of language.”
