LOS ANGELES TIMES FESTIVAL OF BOOKS | THE LARGEST LITERARY GATHERING IN THE COUNTRY. WHERE 500+ VOICES SHARE ONE STAGE. STORIES, CELEBRITIES, AND CONVERSATIONS IN ONE PLACE. A FREE FESTIVAL OPEN TO EVERY KIND OF READER. PANELS, SIGNINGS, AND IDEAS ACROSS AN ENTIRE CAMPUS. WHERE BOOK LOVERS AND STORYTELLERS COLLIDE. A WEEKEND BUILT ON DISCOVERY, COMMUNITY, AND CREATIVITY. WHERE STORIES DON’T JUST LIVE, THEY CONNECT PEOPLE.
When the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books first began in 1996, it was built on a simple but powerful idea: bring books, authors, and readers together in a way that feels open, accessible, and alive. What started as a local literary gathering quickly grew into one of the largest and most celebrated book festivals in the United States. Over the years, LATFOB has become a cultural landmark, where storytelling goes beyond pages and becomes part of a shared, public experience.
Each year, the University of Southern California transforms into a vibrant literary space filled with energy, creativity, and conversation. Walk through the festival and you’ll find author panels, live discussions, book signings, performances, and interactive exhibits happening all at once. It’s not just about selling books. It’s about connecting people through ideas, perspectives, and stories that matter.
The 2026 festival continues that tradition, bringing together a diverse range of voices across genres, backgrounds, and styles. From emerging writers to established authors, the event celebrates storytelling in all its forms. It reflects a literary world that is constantly evolving, shaped by new ideas, cultural shifts, and the voices that dare to be heard.
Thousands of exhibitors take part in the festival, representing publishers, independent presses, educational institutions, and creative communities. The entire space becomes a living network of storytelling, where discovery happens naturally and every corner offers something new to explore.
Amid this dynamic and welcoming environment, Kravitz and Sons is proud to be part of the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books 2026. We’re excited to exhibit Creo En Santa Claus Y Creo En Dios: Por Qué Creo by Lynn Currie, a reflective and carefully written exploration of belief that connects logic with faith in a meaningful way. It invites readers into a conversation that feels both personal and universal.
This work carries its own voice, perspective, and purpose, offering readers something both meaningful and memorable. It does not try to control the narrative. Instead, it allows readers to engage with the ideas in their own way.
An Honest and Grounded Approach
Currie writes with a sense of honesty that makes the book feel real. He does not hide behind complicated arguments or abstract ideas. Everything is presented clearly, making it easier for readers to connect with the message.
His tone remains steady throughout, creating a sense of trust. You feel like you are being guided, not persuaded.
Understanding Belief Step by Step
The book explores key ideas about existence, morality, and the structure of life. Each concept is introduced carefully, giving readers time to process and reflect.
The reader plays an active role in the experience. You are encouraged to think, question, and form your own understanding.
The takeaway is that belief is not something that has to be accepted blindly. It can be explored, understood, and even strengthened through thought.
A Lasting and Meaningful Read
This book leaves a quiet but strong impression. It stays with you because it challenges you to keep thinking, even after you have finished reading.
