Description

Come meet the fabulous author called "the general reader's ideal emissary to the arcana of serious science" by Newsweek and "one of an endangered species: a science writer with a sense of humor" by the Denver Post.

Author of Stiff and Spook, examining death and the afterlife, respectively, Mary's finally turned her incisively witty brain and pointed yet compassionate pen to a topic we can enjoy while we're still alive. "Mary Roach is the funniest writer on sex and death since Sigmund Freud, but without the misogyny and cigars," says Peter Sagal of NPR's "Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!" She'll read from Bonk and discuss "the curious [and in her hands very clever] coupling of sex and science."
