MONDAY:
We will never understand why some people dislike Garrison Keillor. Personally we enjoy his folksy manner and dry sense of humor, even if A Prairie Home Companion is at times a bit hokey. Keillor will be at GW’s Lisner Auditorium to read from and discuss his latest book Pontoon: A Novel of Lake Wobegon. Books will be sold by Olsson’s. 7 p.m.
Psychotherapist and author Amy Bloom will be at Politics and Prose to read from Away, her latest novel. 7 p.m.
TUESDAY:
Cathy Wilkerson will be at Busboys and Poets in D.C. to sign and discuss her new book, Flying Close to the Sun: My Life and Times As a Weatherman. “Weatherman” is actually code for terrorist. The things you learn on Monday mornings. 6 p.m.
Apparently life is similar to a lot of things. A box of chocolates. A board game. But now Garry Kasparov comes along to blow everyone’s minds with How Life Imitates Chess. He’ll be at Politics and Prose with more information. 7 p.m.
