PATRICIA MARX
Thursday, January 18 at 7:30 p.m.

New York writer Patricia Marx, who has worked the funny ground as a Saturday Night Live writer, a regular contributor to The New Yorker and The New York Times, and with such books as How to Regain Your Virginity, visits with a highly-praised debut novel, Him Her Him Again The End of Him (Scribner). It's NOT the most serious book of the new year. The title says some of it. And others say more. "If you're like me, you read a blurb and think, Oh, I didn't know they were friends. But I hardly know Patty—we had dinner once (with other people and all she had was a Diet Coke). So you can believe me when I say: This may be the funniest book I've ever read. The funniest. Ever." - Melissa Bank. "Laugh-aloud funny, fierce, witty, incisive, well-written, engaging, and intelligent. A wonderful book." - Roz Chast.
