MAYOR OF THE UNIVERSE (August 2012) is Lorna Landvik’s ninth published book, and while she is known for creating memorable characters (Patty Jane's House of Curl, Oh My Stars, The View From Mt. Joy), this is her first novel to feature aliens. . . and not the kind seeking a green
card.
The world sees Fletcher Weschel as a mild-mannered actuary, but it could be the world has vision problems. Still, Fletcher wonders what the point is of having a wild heart if it’s ultimately harnessed by a timid soul. In his fantasies, he returns the call of adventure with a bellowing, “here I
come!” In reality, no one hears his whispered, “me too!” ... except for an unlikely group that descends upon him one cold November night. With the help of these visitors, Fletcher’s life will never be the same, and the adventures he’s about to undertake are truly out-of-this world.
She will discuss and sign copies of her new book at the Barnes & Noble in Har Mar Mall on October 11th at 7pm.
