BOOKPACKERS is a vibrant new cultural experience taking novels on the road - ‘The Big Sleep’ in Los Angeles, ‘Interview With The Vampire’ in New Orleans, ‘Beloved' in Cincinnati.
BOOKPACKERS is the vision of contemporary educator Andrew Chater, who leads classes on the Bookpackers model at the University of Southern California. His classes inspire students to use fiction as portals through which we can explore the different cultures of America, encouraging dialogue and understanding in this age of profound division.
