Join us for an evening with acclaimed author (and Chicagoland raised) Dave Eggers as he discusses his new work, Contrapposto, a darkly comic tale set in San Francisco's elite art world. A sweeping novel about friendship, love, and the lifelong pursuit of art, Eggers helps us to confront the contradictions between artistic integrity and the demands of capitalism. Through his signature blend of social commentary and deeply human storytelling, Eggers spins a moving and very funny tale about allies and art, and what it means to be an artist.

A book signing will follow this event.

This event is presented in partnership with the Old Town School of Folk Music.
