Description
On Tuesday, June 18, Mo Rocca, the New York Times bestselling author of Mobituaries, comes to The Music Hall as part of the Writers on a New England Stage series to discuss his new book Roctogenarians. In the same vein as Mobituaries, Roctogenarians is a collection of entertaining and unexpected stories of yesterday’s and today’s strongest finishers.
Mo Rocca and coauthor Jonathan Greenberg introduce us to the people past and present who peaked when they could have been puttering—breaking out as writers, selling out concert halls, attempting to set land-speed records—and in the case of one ninety-year tortoise, becoming a first-time father.
The event starts at 7 p.m. and includes a moderated literary conversation with NHPR’s Julia Furukawa, host of All Things Considered.
