Willy Vlautin on WKE's Story Time

News & Features RSS

If you missed Willy Vlautin last night at Powell’s, there is no need to fret, as WKE’s latest Story Time episode features Vlautin reading from his new novel Lean On Pete (Harper Perennial), which has been hailed as his best yet. Vlautin’s band, Richmond Fontaine, delivers smooth instrumentals in the background.

If you aren’t already plugged into Story Time, and WKE in general, I highly recommend it for the next time you are looking to kill a few hours or minutes of free time…
