Nate Dimeo Author Talk

The Garden District Book Shop is excited to announce that podcaster Nate DiMeo will be at the shop on April 16 to celebrate the release of his short story collection The Memory Palace: True Stories of the Past.

The Memory Palace is a collection of crystalline historical tales that read like luminous short fiction and, like Nate DiMeo’s acclaimed podcast of the same name, conjure lost moments and forgotten figures who are calling out across time to be remembered.

For fifteen years, Nate DiMeo has turned to the past to make sense of the way we live today, finding beauty and meaning in history’s dustier corners, holding things up to the light and weaving facts, keen insight, wit, and poignant observation into unforgettable tales. With new stories and treasured favorites from the beloved podcast assembled alongside dynamic illustrations and archival photographs for the first time, enchantment awaits you.

The event will begin at 6:00 PM. DiMeo will read some stories for the guests and then open up the floor for a Q&A. Afterwards, he will personalize copies of his book and mingle with guests. Books are available to reserve in advance on Eventbrite.
