Geoff Dyer’s wildly funny novels and works of nonfiction have earned the devotion of passionate fans on both sides of the Atlantic. He is the author of nine books, including Yoga for People Who Can’t Be Bothered to Do It and his most recent, Jeff in Venice, Death in Varanasi. The writer of witty, incisive criticism on an astonishing array of subjects, Geoff Dyer is a rare treat. “Dyer is very funny, in both senses—sort of like a postmodern Kingsley Amis. His writing is acute and bad-tempered in the great British tradition, and his prose is the equal of anyone in the country.” —Zadie Smith Post-show cocktails and free concert with Jascha vs. Jascha Standard: $17 Members | $20 Public | $10 Students Premium: $22 Members | $25 Public Monday, May 2 Start: 7:00
