Description

Calendar event image

Join the Cambridge Public Library in celebrating Pride Month by welcoming Kristen Arnett, author of Mostly Dead ThingsWith Teeth, and—published just this past March—STOP ME IF YOU'VE HEARD THIS ONE.

After a reading from her work, Arnett will be joined in conversation by Jill McDonough, author of five books of poetry including American Treasure and Here All Night.

Called "a perversely funny novel about family, ambition, and desire" (Shelf Awareness), STOP ME IF YOU'VE HEARD THIS ONE follows a professional clown, Cherry Hendricks, as she tries to stay true to her needs as a person as well as an artist.

This is a hybrid event and registration is required.

This event is cosponsored by the Cambridge Public Library Foundation.
