This month’s edition of the literary series Between the Lines features local author Thrity Umrigar, who has just published the novel Everybody’s Son, a book about an adopted boy who discovers a dark secret from his past.

A best-selling author, Umrigar has had her books translated into several languages. They’ve also been published in more than 15 countries.

The Armington Professor of English at Case Western Reserve University will talk about Everybody’s Son tonight from 7 to 9 at the Euclid Tavern. Admission is free.
