Best, Greenlight Bookstore Tuesday, September 10, 7:30 PM Jonathan Lethem presents Dissident Gardens In conversation with Laura Miller  " ... the poet of Brooklyn." -Publishers Weekly   Brooklyn literary luminary Jonathan Lethem - a MacArthur fellow and the New York Times bestselling author of nine novels, including Chronic City, Motherless Brooklyn, and The Fortress of Solitude - comes to BAM for an exclusive event to celebrate the launch of his latest novel, Dissident Gardens. Lethem's masterful new work chronicles the radical foibles, both personal and political, of a mother and daughter in Sunnyside, Queens. Deftly navigating the family's tumultuous history through McCarthyism, civil rights, and 70s Aquarian culture, and right up to the present day with the Occupy movement, Lethem paints a vivid portrait of flawed America
