JB readings and appearances, fall 2010

By Jennifer Finney Boylan | Published: August 25, 2010

image603548gI’ve just updated the appearances page to give an initial rundown of readings for this fall. There will be events in Atlanta (Southern Comfort Convention), one at Ursinus College in Pennsylvania, two private ones (in New York and Philly, for Colby alumni), two events associated with the Chicago Humanities Festival (one at the festival proper, one at the Belic Institute of Columbia College Chicago) and one at George Mason University’s Fall for the Book festival.  Lots more info to come.

Update, 8/29: Looks like I won’t be able to participate in the Atlanta Queer Lit festival in October– I’d posted this event earlier, when it looked more likely.  If you want to connect with me in Atlanta, looks like the September 11 event , 2 PM, at the Ravina, is the one to go to.  Thanks! JB

    I really must pay more attention and do more simultaneous translation from American English.

    I thought your popularity had fallen!

    Edward had been my teacher at Johns Hopkins in the winter of 1986. He visited Colby in fall, 2007. As we took our leave of each other, he kissed me on both cheeks and said, "We have done well. You and I."

    Jack was my professor at JHU when I did my thesis, back in the day. After many years, I can now confidently say I finally understand his definition of plot. Which is, of course, "the perturbation of an unstable homeostatic system and its catastrophic restoration to a new and complexified equilibrium."
