I'm there for Russo. The rest... meh.
this may be the year i break down and subscribe.
I'd buy tickets right now if their website weren't still offering last season's lectures.
Aside from the obvious - I'm most excited about Terry Tempest Williams. I've just finished her book "Refuge: An Unnatural History of Family and Place" and it was one of the most unique, heartfelt, touching books I've read in quite some time. I'll definitely be in the audience for that one.
Update to my earlier comment: I just called their office. They say tickets go on sale on Monday. The website will be updated sometime before then.
I just read John Gross' review (in the New York Review of Books) of Updike's latest essay collection, and it reminded me again why I love him so much. His scope is just breathtaking and his point of view is ALWAYS engaging. He's published what? 50 books? And remains incapable of writing badly. Gonna see him speak for sure.
