A best-selling author and three Atlanta poets will close out the September Festival of Writers at the DeKalb Library.

Storyteller and former National Public Radio host Garrison Keillor will discuss his new book, “Pilgrims: A Wobegon Novel” on Sept. 28 at 7 p.m. in Presser Hall at Agnes Scott College in Decatur.

Keillor hosted NPR’s “Prairie Home Companion” for 35 years. His fictional new novel chronicles the lives of small-town Midwesterners as they travel to Italy.

Keillor has penned more than a dozen books including “Leaving Home,” Pontoon” and “Homegrown Democrat.”

Poets Robin Kemp, Karen Head and Robert Wood will read their works at 7:15 p.m. on Sept. 29 at the Decatur Library in Decatur.

Kemp is a former CNN writer who is now a graduate teaching assistant at Georgia State. Head, a special adviser in writing and communications at Georgia Tech, will read selections from her three books of poetry, “Shadow Boxes,” “My Paris Year” and “Sassing.”

Wood, who is Georgia Tech associate literature professor, will read from his new poetry book “Gorizia Notebook.”

Admission to both events is free. Agnes Scott College is at 141 East College Ave. in Decatur. The Decatur Library is at 215 Sycamore St. in Decatur.
