SUMMARY:Paul Yoon at Harvard Book Store
DESCRIPTION:Harvard Book Store welcomes Paul Yoon—acclaimed author of Snow Hunters\, The Mountain\, Run Me to Earth\, and The Hive and the Honey—for a discussion of his new novel\, Etna. He will be joined in conversation by Andrew Krivak—acclaimed author of Mule Boy and The Bear\, and visiting lecturer on English at Harvard University. \nAbout Etna\nNAMED A MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK OF 2026 BY THE NEW YORK TIMES\, TIME\, and LITHUB \nA BEST BOOK OF THE SUMMER FOR THE NEW YORK TIMES\, CHICAGO TRIBUNE\, THE BOSTON GLOBE\, LITHUB\, and SCARY MOMMY \nBeloved author and winner of The Story Prize\, Paul Yoon\, is back with the unforgettable story of a working dog\, Etna\, who\, after a devastating war\, embarks on an odyssey in the hopes of returning home. \nSet in a fictional country in the present day\, this is a story told through the eyes of an ex-military dog\, Etna. After surviving years of a devastating war\, Etna decides one night to leave the men he has fought alongside for years and return home—to the place where he was taken from when he was young\, in the thin but persistent hope that if a home exists for him\, it might be there. \nThus begins an exhilarating odyssey told through the eyes of a dog as he traverses across ruined landscapes and fights to survive in a world that\, even in peacetime\, proves to be just as precarious. Along the way\, he encounters other animals and humans who are attempting to figure out how to start again. What makes a life when there is no home to go back to? How do we begin to trust each other again after such profound loss? \nThis is a novel about the power of an idea\, about never giving up\, and ultimately a novel about finding hope in the most dire of times.
