An Evening with David Sedaris

Tuesday, June 13, 2017 - 6:59 PM

David Sedaris tells all in a book that is, literally, a lifetime in the making

It's no coincidence that the world's best writers tend to keep diaries. If you faithfully record your life in a journal, you're writing every day--and if you write every day, you become a better writer. David Sedaris has kept a diary for forty years. This means that if you've kept a diary for a year of your life or less, Sedaris is at least forty times better at writing than you are.

Written with a sharp eye and ear for the bizarre, the beautiful, and the uncomfortable, and with a generosity of spirit that even a misanthropic sense of humor can't fully disguise, Theft By Finding proves that Sedaris is one of our great modern observers. It's a potent reminder that there's no such thing as a boring day--when you're as perceptive and curious as Sedaris, adventure waits around every corner.

This is a ticketed event. Tickets are $28 (no refunds) and include a signed first edition of Theft by Finding. Also available is a combo ticket ($55) that includes a signed first edition of The Rules Do Not Apply, the David Sedaris 2017 book pick. Combo ticket holders go to the front of the line!!
