After Life as a Human out Nov. 1st — Now Available for Pre-order

We are excited to announce our latest release, Laura Valeri's After Life as a Human! The book will launch November 1st, but pre-orders are now available.

In After Life as a Human, we join Laura Valeri on Dog Island—remote, amenity-deprived, hurricane-prone. Where pelicans rule, residents are resourceful, and human ambition is suspect. With uncanny observation and lyrical reflection, these essays explore the persistence, fragility, and connectedness of life on the island and off.

Laura Valeri's After Life as a Human is now available for pre-order! The preorder period runs from October 1st to 25th, and all pre-orders have free shipping! This offer is available exclusively via our website.

Events with Laura Valeri

Laura Valeri will be at various digital events this fall! The next upcoming event will be on Instagram Live with the Georgia Writers Association at 2pm on Friday, October 30th.

And keep an eye on our events page for more events with Laura Valeri this fall!
