FLOYD SKLOOT
Sunday, May 6 at 2 p.m.

Oregon writer and poet Floyd Skloot returns to Elliott Bay this afternoon to read from his fourth novel, Patient 002 (Rager Media), the story of a man who joins an experimental drug trial with in an attempt to regain his memory. "Skloot turns an involving tale of the mind-body puzzle with a magnetic cast of unusual characters into an archly funny caper, infusing this masterfully understated, tender, and shrewd tale of love and healing with insight, compassion, and a touch of righteous indignation." - Donna Seaman, Booklist. Floyd Skloot is also the author of two memoirs, In the Shadow of Memory (the 2004 PEN Center USA Award winner for Creative Nonfiction), and A World of Light, as well as several books of poetry. Most recent was The World of Dreams.
