A Life No One Will Remember. A Story You Will Never Forget.

V.E. Schwab will speak about her New York Times bestselling novel that is the Westport Library's choice for the 20th annual WestportREADS.

France,1714: in a moment of desperation, a young woman makes a Faustian bargain to live forever and is cursed to be forgotten by everyone she meets. Thus begins the extraordinary life of Addie LaRue, and a dazzling adventure that will play out across centuries and continents, across history and art, as a young woman learns how far she will go to leave her mark on the world.

But everything changes when, after nearly 300 years, Addie stumbles across a young man in a hidden bookstore and he remembers her name.
