HumanArts: Bill Roorbach, Author

“Beep: a Novel.” In which a very humble squirrel monkey saves the world.

Author, Bill Roorbach will be discussing and reading from his latest novel, Beep, about a juvenile Costa Rican squirrel monkey who sets off on a quest that takes him from the jungles of Central America to New York City. Told from the monkey’s point of view, the story is imaginative, moving, and amusing – an inventive and entertaining approach to the theme of all the ways humans disrupt the natural world, with plenty of allusions to climate change.
