Lena Dunham: “Not That Kind of Girl” – In Conversation with Mary Karr Comes to The Wilbur
WHAT: On Thursday, October 2nd, 2014, Lena Dunham: “Not That Kind of Girl” – In Conversation with Mary Karr is coming to The Wilbur in Boston’s historic Theatre District.
From the creator of HBO’s Girls comes Not That Kind of Girl, a collection of personal essays that David Sedaris calls “subversive” and Judy Blume hails as “always funny.” In the words of Lena Dunham herself: “No, I am not a sexpert, a psychologist, or a dietician. I am not a mother of three or the owner of a successful hosiery franchise. But I am a girl with a keen interest in having it all, and what follows are hopeful dispatches from the frontlines of that struggle.” Lena will be in conversation with Mary Karr (The Liars’ Club, Lit).
