Presenter: Arlene N. Heyman, M.D. (New York, NY)
Discussant: Fred L. Griffin, M.D. (Dallas, TX)
Artist-in-Residence Arlene Heyman, psychoanalyst and writer, will read from her recent book and runaway success, “Scary Old Sex.” In step with this year’s Artist and Scholar-in-Residence theme— “Creativity Over the Life Span”— this collection of short stories shatters taboos by taking a stringently perceptive yet unstintingly humanistic look at the vicissitudes of aging—including, well, sex. The New York Times singles out “Scary Old Sex” for its superb prose, and a “bliss that lifts right off the page.” Following the reading, Fred Griffin will in conversation with Heyman explore the mutual influence of her clinical psychoanalytic work and her construction of fictional universes, as well as the evolution of Heyman’s work over her writing career. The session will end with a question and answer with audience members. | | MP3 | | $15.00 | | $15.00 | |
