Lynda Barry event - San Francisco 9-18
thomas.b...@gmail.com
reading & booksigning for "What It Is"
at The Booksmith (1644 Haight Street in San Francisco)
Thursday, September 18 at 7:30 pm
If there were a list of 1,000, or 100, or 10, or even 1 author to see
before you die at the top of that list should be Lynda Barry. She is
a comic book genius - a comix goddess, and one of the most delightful
and inspiring author-artists you’ll ever meet. Her new book, "What It
Is," is a deliciously drawn, insightful, and engaging take on the
process of artistic creation. “Barry is not just a storyteller, she’s
an evangelist who urges people to pick up a pen - or a brush . . . and
look at their own lives with fresh, forgiving eyes.” - San Francisco
Chronicle
Cartoonist, novelist, playwright and Booksmith favorite Lynda Barry is
