Signing with William Pack

Stanford Alum William Pack will be signing his debut novel, "The Bottom of the Sky", winning finalist for the National Best Book 2009 Awards and confirmed entrant for the 2010 Pulitzer Prize. An aching rags-to-riches family saga that springs from rural Montana squalor into the power chambers of Wall Street and Silicon Valley. The story contrasts the 30-year struggles of an abused sister and brother who, after one abandons the other, seek to claim themselves from their abhorrent legacy. This bare-knuckled tour de force deals head-on with childhood shame, promiscuity, prejudice, Wall Street's rape of Main Street, genius, madness and violence. It is a tale of extraordinary sacrifice, of discovery, of redemption.
