    Roz Chast - Encore

    Since 1978, when her very first cartoon appeared in The New Yorker Magazine, Roz Chast has been chronicling modern life’s anxieties and absurdities. Neurotic characters with frizzy hair and mouths agape sit on sofas or walk along New York sidewalks worrying, observing, and making us laugh. Her more than a dozen books include Can’t We Talk about Something More Pleasant?, a memoir about her parents aging, and a collaboration with Steve Martin called The Alphabet from A to Y with Bonus Letter Z!.  On November 2, 2023  Chast came to The Sydney Goldstein Theater in San Francisco to share stories from her newest book, I Must Be Dreaming.

    Karla Cornejo Villavicencio

    Karla Cornejo Villavicencio’s first book, The Undocumented Americans, was hailed as not only a radical experiment in creative nonfiction, but also an important, complex portrait of the lives of undocumented people. Villavicencio melds stark memoir with wide ranging essays, conducting meticulous research through traveling around the country to meet “people who’ve paid a steep price for the so-called American Dream.” Her debut was a finalist for the National Book Award, the National Book Critics Circle Award, and a New York Times notable book in 2020. Now Villavicencio has turned her attention to fiction, publishing her first novel, Catalina. The book tells the story of an undocumented student at Harvard who faces the deepening harshness of the world while ruthlessly observing the cultures of wealth and power that surround her. The book’s mix of heartbreak and social justice proves Villavicencio is a singular and important voice in contemporary literature. On November 15, 2024, Karla Cornejo Villavicencio came to the Sydney Goldstein Theater in San Francisco for an onstage conversation with Shereen Marisol Meraji, a professor at UC Berkeley’s School of Journalism and a founder of NPR’s podcast Code Switch.
