Festival Neue Literatur: Laughing Matters

Sunday, February 28, 2016 @ 6:00 pm

Let’s talk humor. The Festival Neue Literatur, with Vea Kaiser, Christopher Kloeble, Pedro Lenz and Jenny Offill bring you this conversation:

Wry, mordant, acerbic, irreverent, witty, devastating, redemptive: There are so many adjectives to describe different sorts of humor in literature. And in conveying the funny or absurd aspects of human predicaments and relationships, writers can also illuminate profound truths. What does it mean to reveal us to ourselves in ways that also make us laugh at ourselves?

This one’s at McNally Jackson Books, so you can nab that novel you’ve been jonesin’ for.
