Robin Sloan, author of the zany, hilarious, and altogether enthralling debut novel Mr. Penumbras 24-Hour bookstore is back with another infectious and triumphant new book about the wild and crazy start-up culture of the San Francisco Bay Area.

Ever had to move tables at the coffee shop just to escape someones foolhardy pitch to a VC? Ever dove into Crunchbase and found yourself baffled by the ideas people have put millions of dollars behind?

Robin Sloan hears you!

Sourdough from Robin Sloan is a toast to the whizzing brilliance of the Valley, a special homage to all the moofers touching base between sessions of blue sky thinking and the occasional bio-break. Join us for a fun night with one of our favorite local authors as he shares the story of Lois Clary, a software engineer who becomes obsessed with a very special and very mysterious sourdough bread.

Pencil this in, drop it on your calendar, and make a note. This will be one crazy night!
