At first pass, singer/songwriter Regina Spektor and penman/radio personality Kurt Andersen may seem strange stage-fellows. But Barnes & Noble's Upstairs at the Square series has a proven track record of talking outside of the disciplinary box, with performances, readings, and conversations that pair singers and scribes who demystify the artistic process. In this case, the exchange may hinge on some serious soul-searching. Spektor's new album Far asserts that God can be funny, while Andersen's latest book, Reset: How This Crisis Can Restore Our Values and Renew America, suggests we all rethink the state of our civic souls. The event is moderated by cultural journalist Katherine Lanpher.
