A fiction reading and reception honoring Professor Upton on the occasion of the publication of her new book, The Tao of Humiliation (2014). The book has received numerous accolades, including a recent notice in the New York Times Book Review that begins this way: "Readers will want to live inside this wonderful book — not just in its parties and wrecked gatherings and sophisticated conversations but in the sentences themselves, which are genuine shelters: long, erudite, warmhearted and capable, brimming with scholarship and knowledge."
Books will be available for purchase and signing.
