Come join Let's Talk Books as we celebrate the new year with some well-deserved humor! From the Washington Post, "In the opening pages of 'Less,' a 49-year-old writer learns that his former boyfriend is about to get married. To avoid attending the wedding as a heartbroken guest, he embarks on a humiliating trip around the world, teaching classes and delivering readings at any place that will have him."  And from Christopher Buckley in the NY Times, "...as Hunter S. Thompson used to say, 'When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro.' Rather than submit to the ultimate humiliation of attending the wedding, or even of finding himself in the same time zone (nonspoiler alert: the San Francisco Bay Area), Arthur decides to accept a series of invitations to literary events that most self-respecting authors would probably toss into the wastebasket."  Hilarity ensues!
