Can’t make it to one of these events? We went on yet another tour of Brooklyn this past summer and fall, this time signing books. If you missed the book signings at The Meat Hook in Williamsburg, Whisk in Williamsburg, Mercato in Red Hook, and Greenlight Bookstore in Fort Greene, you may find that some of these places still have signed copies. As of last check, Book Court in Cobble Hill had some, too.
