Talk and book signing by Gary Shteyngart. After three acclaimed novels, the New York Times bestseller and fan favorite Gary Shteyngart turns to memoir in Little Failure (Random House) a hilarious, candid, and deeply poignant account of his life so far. It's impossible to get through a chapter of Gary Shteyngart's first memoir without laughing: newly landed immigrants; unrequited love; American and Soviet absurdities; incomparable wit and word play; an audacious sense of fun; and, best of all, a lovable, stumbling, lusting hero: this time, Gary himself. But this is also Gary's most mature, open-hearted, and emotionally rich book to date, telling the story of a man coming to terms with his legacy. Gary Shteyngart is also the author of The Russian Deutante’s Handbook, Absurdistan and Super Sad True Love Story. His work has won the Bollinger Everyman Wodehouse Prize, the Stephen Crane Award and the National Jewish Book Award. Each ticket NOW ADMITS TWO PEOPLE (general admission) and includes a copy of Gary Shteyngart's memoir, Little Failure. Books available at Town Hall at the door on the evening of the event, which will include a book signing by the author.
