Matt McGowan’s new novel, “Western Swing” takes readers across the western U.S. as Ray, a man in his early 20s, leaves the family farm for a solo vacation. It doesn’t stay solo for long, though. McGowan moved from Fayetteville to Spokane, Washington, last year but is back for a reading at Pearl’s Books in downtown Fayetteville on April 11. He spoke with Ozarks at Large's Kyle Kellams about the new book and event.
