Various locations says…

Part police procedural, part postmodern ghost story, Doug Dorst's darkly funny debut novel Alive in Necropolis has been rightfully hailed as the missing link between Paul Auster and Joss Whedon. The novel's local setting, Colma — in which the dead outnumber the living — makes Alive an even more inspired choice for this year's One City One Book program. In addition to reading along with your fellow San Franciscans, there's a host of Alive-related events happening throughout the month, including several opportunities to hear Dorst read, as well as a guided walk through Colma's Holy Cross Cemetery.
