Details
Join us at Lion's Mouth Bookstore for a sidewalk signing with Kevin Revolinski in celebration of his new collection, Stealing Away. Kevin Revolinski was born and raised in Wisconsin, but then set loose upon the world, traveling to more than 75 countries and founding The Mad Traveler website. Stealing Away is his first collection of short stories, partly set in the Midwest, partly abroad. He is the author of 15 other books, including Wisconsin’s Best Beer Guide, Backroads & Byways Wisconsin, Best Tent Camping Wisconsin, and The Yogurt Man Cometh: Tales of an American Teacher in Turkey. His articles have appeared in The New York Times, Chicago Tribune, and Sydney Morning Herald. A frequent guest on Wisconsin Public Radio, he lives in Madison, Wisconsin.
“STEALING AWAY is a lush, shimmering collection, at once globe-trotting and far-afield, and also somehow as intimate and quotidian as any small hometown. Revolinski, an accomplished non-fiction writer, proves with this book that he has incredible range, wisdom, and empathy. I raced through this collection of short stories and can’t wait to read more of Revolinski’s fiction. A fantastic debut.”
— Nickolas Butler, NYT bestselling author of Shotgun Lovesongs and Little Faith
