Los Angeles Times

Percival Everett brings “Dr. No” to L.A Times Book Club on November 16.

The Autry Museum

Join us for November&#x27;s L.A. Times Book Club event with Los Angeles novelist Percival Everett. Everett writes books that play with genre, language and our assumptions about race and gender. But for “Dr. No,” he has written a supervillain caper about “nothing.” Times reviewer Lorraine Berry describes the book as a “cross-genre hybrid featuring a cast of characters out of a 007 novel.”A USC English professor and Guggenheim fellow, Everett has earned international acclaim for his work.
