We have over 70 authors coming,' Lenz said.

And this is one of those years where it really went over that again.

'We always try to limit the number of authors we have to 50. The festival opens Monday and runs through April 26, with more than 100 events hosted by Fox Cities libraries, coffee shops, book stores and educational facilities. 'I think this year's festival is just so diverse,' said Lenz, who also serves on the festival board and is the chair of the authors committee. That's one of the reasons Menasha Public Library director Vicki Lenz said she expects this to be the best Fox Cities Book Festival yet. Much like many shelves of the libraries and book stores that will host gatherings during the Fox Cities Book Festival, the eighth annual event has a little something for everybody.įrom Wisconsin's new poet laureate to a 'Star Wars' novelist to a critically-acclaimed playwright to the author of the New York Times best seller 'Orphan Train,' a reader would be hard-pressed to find something on the sprawling weeklong schedule of events that doesn't pique their interest.
