Presented in partnership with The White Hart Inn, Scoville Memorial Library & WAMC On The Road. Tickets $15: Include a complimentary glass of house wine, beer or non alcoholic beverage plus a $5 voucher towards the purchase of LIFE AND ART at this event. Pulitzer Prize-winner and bestselling author Richard Russo will talk about his marvelous new essay collection with WAMC's Joe Donahue.Life and Art—these are the twin subjects considered in Richard Russo’s twelve masterful new essays—how they inform each other and how the stories we tell ourselves about both shape our understanding of the world around us. In “The Lives of Others,” he reflects on the implacable fact that writers use people, insisting that what matters, in the end, is how and for what purpose. How do you bridge the gap between what you know and what you don’t, and sometimes can’t, know? Why tell a story in the first place? What we don’t understand, Russo opines, is in fact the very thing that beckons to us. Rick Russo is the author of six previous novels and The Whore's Child, a collection of stories. In 2002, he received the Pulitzer Prize for Empire Falls. He lives with his wife in Camden, Maine, and Boston. Photo credit Elena Seibert. Joe Donahue talks to people on the radio for a living. In addition to countless impressive human  gets  - he has talked to a lot of Muppets. Joe grew up in Philadelphia, has been on the area airwaves for more than 25 years and currently lives in Washington County, NY with his wife, Kelly, and their dog, Brady. And yes, he reads every single book. The White Hart Inn is a fully wheelchair accessible space with on-site van accessible parking. Microphones and speakers will be used at this event.
