Chabon Signs Again with HC
by Matthew Thornton, PW Daily -- Publishers Weekly, 6/1/2007
Pulitzer Prize-winner Michael Chabon has signed a new two-book deal with HarperCollins; Jonathan Burnham bought North American rights from agent Mary Evans, and Jennifer Barth will edit. The first book will be Chabon’s first work of nonfiction; in it he will discuss being a man in all its complexity—a son, a father, a husband. Tentative pub date is spring 2009. The second book, tentatively scheduled for publication in 2011, is a contemporary novel set in and around the Bay Area. HarperCollins has just published Chabon’s novel The Yiddish Policemen’s Union, now entering its third week near the top of the New York Times bestseller list.
