Happy Endings Music and Reading Series, Wednesday, November 21, 2012, 7:30pm
Oh, how I love Thanksgiving—football games on the lawn, dogs in cute sweaters, frosted up windows and the brutal wonder of family. If you are in the NYC area on Thanksgiving Eve, consider joining me, Vanessa Veselka, Zadie Smith, and Sondre Lerche at Amanda Stern’s wonderful Happy Endings Series. Each reader and musician is required to take a risk. I am considering playing my first song on guitar and singing—which would be quite a risk, if you’ve ever heard me play guitar, which you haven’t, because I’ve never played for anyone besides a select group of people I’ve blood-sworn to secrecy! I will be reading “North Of" for the first time in public, my story about a girl who brings Bob Dylan home for Thanksgiving.
November 21st, THE BOX, 168 Chrystie Street, doors open at 7:30pm, show starts at 8pm. $15
