Dave Barry @ the Philadelphia Free Library

January 28, 2013 in Books,Events,Philadelphia with 0 Comments

Get ready, fans of humor. The hallowed halls of the Philadelphia Free Library are about to echo with the pleasant sound of booger jokes.

Longtime humor columnist Dave Barry, who began his career in West Chester, will appear at the library system’s central branch on Thursday, January 31 to promote his new novel Insane City.

The Pulitzer-prize-winning humorist spent over 30 years with the Miami Herald and authored numerous books. Among his non-fiction titles are Dave Barry’s Complete Guide to Guys and I’ll Mature When I’m Dead. Among his novels are Lunatics and Big Trouble, the latter of which was the basis for a 2001 movie starring Tim Allen.
