We hope you can join us! Tickets here. Be sure to get a ticket that includes a signed copy of the book!
Hi Folks,
Due to unforeseen circumstances, Kaui Hart Hemmings will not be able to join us on November. We look forward to rescheduling her for a Books & Spirits in the new year. Those of you who purchased tickets already will receive a refund. In the meantime, we suggest reading How to Party with an Infant. It’s an uproariously funny “Bonfire of the Vanities” for the mommy and daddy set.
But have no fear, we are on the job. We are delighted to welcome William Finnegan to the November 30th Books & Spirits. William is the author of Barbarian Days: A Surfing Life, which won the 2016 Pulitzer Prize for Autobiography!
