The Badlands Saloon: An Illustrated Novel
by
Twingley, Jonathan
Meet author Jonathan Twingly Monday Nov. 2 at 7pm at the Taube. Join the Taube, Main Street Books and Minot State University as we host this once-in-a-lifetime event to meet Jonathan and to listen to him discuss his art. Twingley, who lives in New York but was raised in Bismarck, will be signing copies of his book after his talk. What a great gift idea for an aspiring artist or writer on your gift list.
As written and painted by Twingley, this beautifully illustrated semi-autobiographical novel--set in a small town nestled in the badlands of North Dakota--paints a loving portrait of oddball characters, outcasts, and the oft-ignored. |
