Bestselling author William Kent Krueger to speak, sign books at Kenton County Public Library
Acclaimed author William Kent Krueger, known for his bestselling novels This Tender Land and Ordinary Grace, as well as the popular Cork O’Connor mystery series, will visit the Kenton County Public Library’s Erlanger Branch, located at 401 Kenton lands Road, on Wednesday, April 9, from 6:30-8:30 p.m. for an engaging author talk and book signing. Roebling Point Books & Coffee will be on-site selling copies of his books.
Krueger, a New York Times bestselling author, has earned numerous literary accolades, including the Edgar Award for Best Novel. His gripping Cork O’Connor series, set in the north woods of Minnesota, features a compelling protagonist of mixed Irish and Ojibwe heritage. His standalone novels, Ordinary Grace and This Tender Land, have captivated readers worldwide, with This Tender Land spending nearly six months on the New York Times bestseller list. His latest novel, The River We Remember, released in September 2023, was an instant New York Times, Washington Post, and USA Today bestseller.
Raised in the Cascade Mountains of Oregon, Krueger’s path to literary success was unconventional. Expelled from Stanford University for radical activities, he worked as a logger, construction worker and freelance journalist before becoming a full-time author. He now resides in St. Paul, Minnesota, with his wife of over 50 years.
