Prologue Bookshop is proud to welcome Chris Bachelder and Jennifer Habel into the store to celebrate our fifth anniversary with us!

Bachelder and Habel wrote the novel Dayswork together, which is a startlingly original, incantatory novel about marriage, mortality, and making art.  

Absorbing, charming, and intimate, Dayswork considers the blurry lines between life and literature, the slippage between what happens and what gets recorded, and the ways we locate ourselves in the lives of others. In wry, epigrammatic prose, Chris Bachelder and Jennifer Habel have crafted an exquisite and daring novel.

The pair will be in the bookshop beginning at 1pm, and will be meeting folks as well as signing books.

Chris Bachelder is the author of four novels, including The Throwback Special, a National Book Award finalist and winner of the Terry Southern Prize for Humor. He lives in Cincinnati, Ohio.

Jennifer Habel is the author of the poetry collections Good Reason and The Book of Jane, which won the Iowa Poetry Prize. She lives in Cincinnati, Ohio.
