Description

In 2024, author George Saunders received the distinct honor of having three works listed among the New York Times 100 Best Books of the 21st Century. In 2026, he returns to Symphony Space to discuss his latest novel, Vigil. Brimming with Saunders' signature wit and wisdom, Vigil follows an oil baron's journey from this life to the next, offering insight on capitalism, corporate greed, and the question of absolution. This event includes an actor reading from the book and an audience Q&A.

All tickets include a signed copy of Vigil (retail price $28.00).

For those who would like their books personalized, there will be a book signing following the audience Q&A. Ticket buyers will be called up by row.
