MONDAY:
Peter Behrens will be at Politics and Prose to discuss his latest book, The Law of Dreams. Maybe Behrens can analyze our reoccurring dream where we keep getting lost while driving down some featureless freeway. Wait … His book is about a young man roaming the Irish countryside in 1847? Good thing we read that before we asked about the part where we’re naked. 7:30 p.m.

TUESDAY:
The one and only Dave Eggers will be appearing at Politics and Prose to read from his latest novel What Is the What. Unless Politics and Prose has the wrong time on their Web site, the reading is taking place at 2 p.m. It looks like you Eggers fans will have to call in sick for this one.

Tom Miller will be at the National Geographic building to moderate a discussion between contributors to the collection How I Learned English: 55 Accomplished Latinos Recall Lessons in Language and Life. Grosvenor Auditorium, 7:30 p.m. Books will be sold by Olsson’s.
