Memoirist LEAH CAROLL and Essayist ALAN FISHBONE talk mortality and freedom

July 6, 2017 | 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Free

An event of a different color: LEAH CAROLL delves into the traumatic deaths of her parents and their intersections with the Rhode-Island mafia in Down City: A Daughter’s Story of Love.

ALAN FISHBONE is the motorcycle-riding classical scholar who offers wisdom gathered from the poetry of antiquity, and from near-death experiences on the open road in his work Organ Grinder: A Classical Education Gone Astray.

This event, sponsored by the Boston Literary District, is free and open to the public.
