SUMMARY:A Conversation with Anne Lamott
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a night of captivating conversation with bestselling novelist and essayist Anne Lamott as ESR’s Ben Brazil interviews her. \n\n\n\n\nRegister via EventBrite\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Anne Lamott\n\n\n\nAnne Lamott writes and speaks about subjects that begin with capital letters: Alcoholism\, Motherhood\, and Jesus. But armed with self-effacing humor – she is laugh-out-loud funny – and ruthless honesty\, Lamott converts her subjects into enchantment. Actually\, she writes about what most of us don’t like to think about. She wrote her first novel for her father\, the writer Kenneth Lamott\, when he was diagnosed with brain cancer. She has said that the book was “a present to someone I loved who was going to die.” In all her novels\, she writes about loss – loss of loved ones and loss of personal control. She doesn’t try to sugar-coat the sadness\, frustration\, and disappointment but tells her stories with honesty\, compassion\, and a pureness of voice. As she says\, “I have a lot of hope and a lot of faith\, and I struggle to communicate that.” Anne Lamott does communicate her faith; in her books and in person\, she lifts\, comforts\, and inspires\, all the while keeping us laughing.Anne Lamott is the author of seven novels: Hard Laughter\, Rosie\, Joe Jones\, Blue Shoe\, All New People\, Crooked Little Heart\, and Imperfect Birds. She has also written several bestselling books of nonfiction\, including Operating Instructions\, an account of life as a single mother during her son’s first year; Some Assembly Required: A Journal of My Son’s First Son; and the classic book on writing; Bird by Bird: Some Instructions on Writing and Life. She has also authored several collections of autobiographical essays on faith: Traveling Mercies: Some Thoughts on Faith\, Plan B: Further Thoughts on Faith\, and Grace (Eventually): Thoughts on Faith. In addition\, she has written Help\, Thanks\, Wow: The Three Essential Prayers\, Stitches; A Handbook on Meaning\, Hope and Repair\, Small Victories: Spotting Improbable Moments of Grace\, Hallelujah Anyway; Rediscovering Mercy and Almost Everything: Notes on Hope. Her most recent book is Dusk\, Night\, Dawn: On Revival and Courage.She is currently working on her next book\, Somehow: Thoughts on Love (Riverhead\, April 9\, 2024). Lamott has been honored with a Guggenheim Fellowship and has taught at UC Davis\, as well as at writing conferences across the country. Academy Award-winning filmmaker Freida Mock has made a documentary on Lamott entitled “Bird by Bird with Annie” (1999). Anne Lamott has also been inducted into the California Hall of Fame.
