Every Day a Little Death Author Event

Join Josh Pachter in conversation with John Copenhaver, Lisa Nanni-Messegee, Marcia Talley, and Kristopher Zgorski to discuss Every Day a Little Death! In Every Day a Little Death, twenty authors-some from the world of crime fiction, some from the world of the theater-use Sondheim's lyrics as the inspiration for twenty tales of malfeasance, misdemeanor...and M**der.

In Every Day a Little Death, twenty authors--some from the world of crime fiction, some from the world of the theater--use Sondheim's lyrics as the inspiration for twenty tales of malfeasance, misdemeanor...and M**der.
