The most wonderful time of the year is almost upon us. Time for Brooklyn Academy of Music’s annual “Eat, Drink & Be Literary” series, with the first talk in the series beginning March 10 and it looks like it’s gonna be another great one.

For all of you newbies, EDBL is an author series sponsored by the National Book Foundation and held at BAM’s Peter Jay Sharpe building in Brooklyn, complete with dinner, wine, music and the chance to be in the same room as your favorite author. I’ve been fortunate enough to attend for the last four years and each one has been amazing. Last year I attended Min Jin Lee’s talk, author of Pachinko, and she was incredible.

This year’s authors in the series will be Tayari Jones, Sigrid Nunez, Ilya Kaminsky and Luis Alberto Urrea. For more information on the series and tickets, visit BAM's website.
