  "A dazzling talent--hilarious, winning, and deft."
                                                                          --Malcolm Gladwell


New Yorker staff writer Adam Gopnik will read and discuss a sampler of his works at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday, September 22, in the Branford Common Room. Gopnik's books include Paris to the Moon  (which the Boston Globe called "simply wonderful") and Through the Children's Gate (which the Los Angeles Times called "enchanted"). He has won three National Magazine Awards for essays and criticism and been a frequent guest on Charlie Rose.

The event is part of the Schlesinger Visiting Writer series, which has brought to Yale such distinguished writers as John McPhee, Joan Didion, Dave Eggers, Michael Pollan, and Gay Talese.
