Local writer and microblogger extraordinaire Matt Stewart will be paying us a visit at Green Apple to read from and sign copies of his new book, The French Revolution.

The French Revolution is the hilarious, tragic, and deeply imaginative story of a San Francisco family forging its place in history. In this debut novel, first published in 140 character bursts on Twitter, Stewart blends vibrant prose, unforgettable characters, and a multi-layered plot based on the extremes of the historical French Revolution for a relentlessly entertaining debut novel. And, as Andrew Leland wrote in a recent review of the book for SFGate, "the real tour de force comes when he lets his sentences run off-leash through the streets of San Francisco. The city Stewart describes will be instantly recognizable to anyone who lives here."

We hope you'll join us on August 12th to celebrate the City, the combined power of social networking and good old fashioned publishing, and of course, la revolution.
