Free tix to Hanif's event in Lawrence tomorrow
Hanif Abdurraqib is one of my favorite writers, a rare and brilliant voice who finds space in pop culture narratives to build engrossing personal histories. His latest book, There’s Always This Year: On Basketball and Ascension, might be his most vivid, genre-blending work to date. We recently spoke about ball for Streak Talk—as we have before—and I’ll publish that convo ASAP.
Hanif is doing a show at Liberty Hall tomorrow night. Tickets are still available! I also grabbed four tickets to the show for readers. If you’d like one and you’re one of the first four people to respond, I’ll transfer one over to you.
Buy Hanif’s book at The Raven. I’ll drop the Q&A soon.
