Cricket Dib has no particular prospects or ambitions until, in grade school, he realizes he can draw. He soon meets a girl, the captivating and brilliant Olympia Argyros. Together they go to art school—an experience of dubious value—and then navigate the art world for the next fifty years. “Contrapposto” is a moving and very funny novel about allies and soulmates, and what it means to be an artist.  INDIVIDUAL TICKET $38(Admits ONE and includes one copy of “Contrapposto”)ORPACKAGE TICKET $45(Admits TWO and includes one copy of “Contrapposto”)A signing and photo line will follow the presentation.Books provided by Left Bank BooksTop image description: Photo of Dave Eggers Text: St. Louis County Library Foundation's Favorite Author Series presents Acclaimed Novelist Dave Eggers.
