04.03: J. C. Hallman in Conversation with Mary Szybist

2015-03-18 19:04:47| Powells Books Events Calendar

Nearly 25 years ago, Nicholson Baker published U and I, the fretful, handwringing, and groundbreaking tale of his literary relationship with John Updike. U and I inspired a whole subgenre of engaging, entertaining writing about reading, but what no story of this type has ever done is tell its tale from the moment of conception. B and Me (Simon & Schuster) is that story, the story of J. C. Hallman discovering and reading Nicholson Baker, and discovering himself in the process. B and Me is literary self-archaeology: a funny, irreverent, incisive story of one reader's desperate quest to restore passion to literature, and all the things he learns along the way. Hallman will be joined in conversation by Mary Szybist, National Book Award-winning poet and author of Incarnadine.
