Colfax Avenue: Award-winning poet and memoirist Mary Karr will read from and sign her new memoir Lit ($25.99 HarperCollins), the long-awaited sequel to her New York Times bestselling memoirs The Liars’ Club and Cherry. In her new book, Karr chronicles her descent into the inferno of alcoholism and madness, and her astonishing resurrection. A recollection of her struggle to come to terms with her Christian faith after years as an agnostic, Lit explores the relationship between spirituality and substance abuse and depression. It is also about getting drunk and getting sober; becoming a mother by letting go of a mother; and learning to write by learning to live. Request a signed copy: books@tatteredcover.com Start: 7:30 pm
Historic LoDo: Amy Whitaker, who writes from a unique perspective, having both an MBA in economics from Yale and an MFA in painting from the Slade School of Fine Art in London, will discuss and sign her debut book Museum Legs: Fatigue and Hope in the Face of Art ($16.00 paperback Hol Art Books and $34.00 hardcover). This collection of essays—which takes its title from a term for art fatigue—begins with a question: Why do so many otherwise curious people get bored and tired in art museums, and why does that matter? As it turns out, the answer has less to do with art as we know it and more to do with innovation, public life, and the age-old question of how to live.
