Announcing Spring Author Series
After FOSEL has evolved to the South End Library Author Series to reach beyond the South End and Boston to entice our friends and neighbors to experience acclaimed authors, their books, and the conversations they generate.
This season enjoy a stimulating evening connecting with admired authors whose work will range across multiple genres and geographies! It’s a great time to connect with friends and neighbors! After the talk and Q&A discussion, take advantage of the opportunity to purchase the showcased book(s), enjoy the signing, and appreciate delicious appetizers, wine or soft drinks with other readers from the South End.
Parkside Books, our new neighborhood bookstore at 260 Shawmut Ave, will be on site to sell the books and it will be a good moment to connect with them as well. https://www.parksidebookshop.com/
Our Spring 2026 series of three sessions will be held at the United Church at 485 Columbus Ave, at 6:30pm in the Connection Room. They will be available by Zoom for those who are unable to come in person and enjoy the camaraderie, refreshments, and book signings of these events.
We start our Spring Series with award winning crime fiction novelist, Bruce Coffin, who’ll share his latest, Bitter Fall, from his Detective Justice series. Reviewed by Library Journal as “...high-speed and dripping with suspense.”
