About
Booker Prize-shortlisted Canadian author Patrick deWitt returns with Dodge City, a rollicking road novel set against the upheavals of 1967 America. When 23-year-old Lee Clarke receives his Vietnam draft notice, he makes the first political decision of his life: to flee north to Canada. Armed with a suitcase, a bag of amphetamines and a showroom-new Jaguar, Lee sets out across the country, stopping along the way to say goodbye to his complicated family. The acclaimed author of The Sisters Brothers, French Exit and The Librarianist joins TIFA to discuss family, country, and what the past can tell us about the present.
Generously supported by Harriet Lewis and Eldon Bennett.
