SUMMARY:Jennette McCurdy
DESCRIPTION:Sixth & I is impacted by the global Microsoft outage and we are unable to receive emails to our help desk. With questions about this event or for technical assistance accessing the live-stream\, please call our office at 202.408.3100. \nFrom Jennette McCurdy—the #1 New York Times bestselling author of I’m Glad My Mom Died—comes Half His Age\, a sad\, funny\, thrilling novel about sex\, consumerism\, class\, desire\, loneliness\, the internet\, rage\, intimacy\, power\, and the lengths we’ll go to in order to get what we want.  \nWaldo is a ravenous\, blunt\, naïve yet wise\, impulsive\, and angry seventeen-year-old girl who is endlessly wanting. And the thing she wants most of all: Mr. Korgy\, her creative writing teacher with the wife and the kid and the mortgage and the bills\, with the dead dreams and the growing paunch. She doesn’t know why she wants him. Is it his passion and life experience? Or the similar filter with which they each take in the world around them? Or\, perhaps\, it’s that he sees her when no one else does.  \nIn her debut novel\, McCurdy delivers a rich character study of a yearning teen who disregards all obstacles—or attempts to overcome them—in her effort to be seen\, desired\, and loved.  \nMcCurdy will be in conversation with Kelsey McKinney\, a reporter\, writer\, and a co-owner and staff writer at Defector.com where she co-created the hit podcast “Normal Gossip.” She’s the author of the New York Times bestseller\, You Didn’t Hear This From Me: (Mostly) True Notes on Gossip\, and of the novel\, God Spare The Girls. \nThis program will be ASL-interpreted for the in-person audience. To sit in the interpreted section or to access the interpreted feed virtually\, contact Amanda. \nNote:  \nSeating is general admission; first-come\, first-served. There are some obstructed view seats on the balcony level.
