Lucas Mann presents Attachments, feat. Leslie Jamison

P&T Knitwear is pleased to welcome author & bookstore owner Lucas Mann for a discussion of his newest book, Attachments: Essays on Fatherhood and Other Performances — in which Mann chronicles his own life with his young daughter, but also looks outward to the cultural and political baggage that surrounds and permeates these everyday experiences — along with an audience Q&A and book signing!

Lucas will be joined in conversation by Leslie Jamison, critically acclaimed New York Times bestselling author of Splinters: Another Kind of Love Story & The Empathy Exams. After the talk, Lucas will sign copies of his book.
