Portland author Satya Doyle Byock will read from Quarterlife: The Search for Self in Early Adulthood (Random House, July 2022).

Satya is a psychotherapist, the founder and director of The Salome Institute, and a former Delve guide at Literary Arts who has been a part of the PDX literary scene for 15 years. Her first book, which Publisher’s Weekly called a “perceptive debut” seeks to fill a longstanding gap in soulful psychology books available for people in the first half of adulthood. Through clinical storytelling from her practice as well as a look into history and literature, Quarterlife offers people between the ages of 16-36 insight on how “to find and create one’s own life and purpose in a complex and deeply fraught world.” New York Times bestselling author, Tembi Locke, said, “I loved this book more than I can say! Quarterlife is an insightful, revealing look at the messy and uncharted paths to wholeness, and a powerful tool for anyone navigating early adulthood. This is the book I wish I’d had and one that I will gift again and again. Byock has written both a groundbreaking guide and an intimate invitation to understanding that is destined to be an instant classic.”

Books will be available for purchase at the event.
