Alexander McCall Smith

The Very Small Things in Life
Presented by Hennepin Theatre Trust
"Share

Author Alexander McCall Smith has cancelled. He is unable to travel from Scotland because of airline transportation disruption caused by Icelandic volcanic ash. Refunds will be given at the point of purchase.

State Theatre
Monday, April 26 at 7:30pm
$23.00 to $33.00

Alexander McCall Smith will give a talk entitled “The Very Small Things in Life” for approximately one-hour, followed by 20-30 minutes of audience questions. Mr. McCall Smith’s books will be for sale at the event. Immediately following his talk, he will participate in a book signing.

Alexander McCall Smith has written more than 60 books, including specialist academic titles, short story collections, and a number of immensely popular children's books. Referred to as our new P.G. Wodehouse, he is best known for his internationally acclaimed No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency series, which rapidly rose to the top of the bestseller lists throughout the world.

"For those who take their books straight up - not off Oprah's list - Books & Bars is the cure.


 

Bookended by social hours, it's a perfect opportunity to meet hip literary types -
and the liquid courage doesn't hurt."

-- MPLS. ST. PAUL magazine, July 2008


This event is part of LIVING LEGENDS, a series of live appearances by artists of exceptional accomplishment presented by Hennepin Theatre Trust.
