The transition into November is bringing with it two noteworthy author events—New York Times bestselling author Michael Connelly and local author Stu Stall.
First, at 7 p.m. in the Winn Room of the Coronado Public Library on Nov. 6, local author Stu Stall will discuss his new book “Hell House: True Stories From the Redheaded Stepchild.”
About Stu Stall’s “Hell House”
Stall’s book is a memoir from the redheaded step-child himself, outlining his mom’s tragic death and the events that followed.
The memoir is full of tales of growing up in the late 1960s and early 1970s with parties, surfing, girls and all the fun you could have growing up in Coronado.
Story after story, all action-filled, it will make you laugh, cry and wonder how it could even happen. Abuse and cruelty were part of the daily bread. Learn how the redheaded step-child won in the end and what the cost was.
Michael Connelly to discuss new release
And, No. 1 New York Times bestselling author Michael Connelly is coming in-person to discuss his hot-off-the-press new book, “Resurrection Walk” at 7 p.m at the Coronado Performing Arts Center on Nov. 8.
Connelly is the author of 38 previous novels, including No. 1 New York Times bestsellers “Desert Star,” “The Dark Hours” and “The Law of Innocence.”
