As most of you know, the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books is one of my favorite events of the year. The Gods have seen fit to put me on a stellar panel this year– with Lauren Groff (Arcadia) and Ben Fountain (Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk). We’ll be on at 11 a.m. on Saturday, April 20, at Seeley Mudd Hall on the beautiful USC campus.
If you wonder whether or not the Book Festival is worth your time, you’ll find in “The Literateria” posts from last year’s LAT Book Festival. So if you want a real car wash for your head, where it comes out all sparkly and spruced up, spend a day or two listening to the best writers alive now.
