This intimate event held in a private garden marks one of his few stops on his U.S. book signing tour. Professor emeritus of law at Humboldt University, Berlin, and Cardozo Law School, New York, Schlink is the author of many internationally bestselling novels, including The Reader (1997), which was selected as an Oprah pick and made into an Oscar-winning film featuring Ralph Fiennes and Kate Winslet.
