Thank you Maria

Very, very happy about my University of Chicago events: talks at the Greenberg Center, the Rock course in the Department of Music, the University Library & Divinity School, on poetry, rock music, history, memory & my Yale Fortunoff project. See you in Chicago in three weeks!

SOLD OUT. See you tonight!

This is Leela Corman – brilliant artist, maker of beautiful paintings and comics, and most of all a dear friend. She created the paintings that accompanied the Mourners premiere, and I’m sure this won’t be the last time we work together. Fingers crossed!

This is Martha Minow, 300th Anniversary University Professor, former Dean of Harvard Law School, and one of the leading scholars of constitutional law and human rights, but above all a wonderful human being. Martha gave the introduction to my event at Harvard Law School.

A very, very intense time at Harvard. This time, a discussion at the Harvard FXB Center for Health and Human Rights. Photo: Fiona Campbell

Gdańsk this Saturday! Only a few tickets left. See you there!

Another day at Harvard, this time with Stephen Greenblatt, one of the most distinguished contemporary literary scholars and Shakespeare scholars, and also someone who is definitely much better at taking selfies than I am.
