Kevin Quinn is a standard-variety American male. As his relationship
with his girlfriend approaches a turning point, and his career seems
increasingly pointless, he decides to secretly fly to a job interview in
Austin. Aboard the plane, Kevin is simultaneously attracted to the young
woman in the seat next to him and panicked by a new wave of terrorism in
Europe and the UK. He lands safely with neuroses intact and full of hope
that the job, the city, and the girl from the plane might yet be his chance
for reinvention. His next eight hours make up this novel, a tour-de-force of
mordant humor, brilliant observation, and page-turning storytelling.
BookPeople is thrilled to host Austinite Jim Hynes and his new novel Next,
tonight at 7PM.
