David Sedaris - Book and Signing Line Ticket ONLY

Bookmarks is thrilled to present an author event with David Sedaris on Wednesday, May 30 at 6:30 pm for his new book, Calypso. Please read this event listing carefully and in its entirety, as it contains very important information regarding details of the event.

We have sold out of event tickets for the David Sedaris event on May 30 at 6:30 p.m. BUT -- we still encourage you to preorder the book to get a signing line ticket! Anyone with a signing line ticket will be able to enter the store once the speaking event is over (we *estimate* this will begin about 9 p.m.) to have their books signed. We are limiting the signing line tickets to 100 people.

Signing line only tickets: Signing line ticket holders will lineup outside the store. We will start letting signing line ticket holders enter the store as capacity permits after the speaking event. This is estimated at 9:00 p.m.

David Sedaris will be here until EVERYONE in line has a chance to meet him and get a book signed. Be advised, many of David Sedaris events continue until 1:30 a.m.

There is to be NO photography, recording, or video for the entire evening, reading or signing. This includes live social media. Please be respectful of Mr. Sedaris wishes.

Please do not ask the author to sign books written by other people.

FAQ

Why not host the reading and signing at a bigger venue? Mr. Sedaris loves doing book signings and readings in bookstores themselves, and for additional contractual reasons this was organized as an in-store event.

Can I listen to the reading if I don't buy a ticket? Due to the capacity of the store space, the reading itself will be limited to event ticket holders only, i.e. the first 260 ticket purchasers on May 1.

When will ticket holders receive their copies of the book? You can pick up your book when you enter the event on May 30th.

I can't come. Can I order a signed book? YES! Call 336-747-1471 to place an order over the phone.
