William E. Jones conversation and book signing at Artbook at Hauser & Wirth Los Angeles

Saturday, May 18 at 3 PM, Artbook at Hauser & Wirth and We Heard You Like Books invite you to a book signing with William E. Jones in conversation with Jarett Kobek for the launch of I'm Open to Anything.
William E. Jones conversation and book signing at Artbook at Hauser & Wirth Los Angeles
A perverse and explicit new take on the coming of age novel, William E. Jones’s I’m Open to Anything explores bohemian Southern California of the late 1980s and early 90s, before gentrification ruined everything. Alternating between explicit scenes of kinky sex and intimate conversations about matters of life and death, I’m Open to Anything is a porno novel of rare ambition and humor. The book recalls Olympia Press’s heyday, when authors made quick money churning out dirty books, but couldn’t hide the intellectual obsessions that made them writers in the first place.

Signed copies of I'm Open to Anything are available to pre-order with free domestic shipping! Email bookshw-la@artbook.com.
