Michael Chabon - Manhood For Amateurs @ GW Lisner Auditorium
Oct 9 2009 7:00 pm
Chabon, whose The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay won the 2001 Pulitzer Prize for fiction, offers his second venture into non-fiction, a collection of autobiographical essays that are both reflective and anecdotal. What does is mean to be a man today? Chabon reviews the diverse roles he has held as son, husband, and father, and discovers new meanings and regrets, along with plenty of humor.
