Jim Schutze speaks about his debut novel, Pontiac - May 22!
Jim Schutze, author Pontiac and The Accommodation.
Jim Schutze, will be our guest speaker in May. The American journalist’s fiction debut is a difficult, beautiful coming of age tale set in a 1960s New England boarding school.
Mr Schutze cut his teeth as an American political journalist. He also authored several nonfiction books — including The Accommodation, about Dallas's checkered history with racism. This novel marks a turning point. Schutze has entered a new terrain with fiction, yet the novel has the hallmarks of a non-fiction mind.
