In partnership with Labyrinth Books and Princeton Public Library 

Experience a special evening of storytelling and reflection as Patti Smith celebrates the release of her deeply personal new memoir, Bread of Angels. In conversation with Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist, poet, and Director of Princeton University’s Program in Journalism, Eliza Griswold, Smith will share passages that chart her journey from her childhood in postwar America to her creative awakening and life as one of rock’s most influential voices.

The conversation will include an intimate performance of a select few of Patti's favorite songs with acoustic accompaniment.

Each ticket includes a copy of Bread of Angels.
