Péter Esterházy, author
András Schiff, piano

"Esterházy's prose is jumpy, allusive, and slangy…there is vividness, an electric crackle."
—John Updike, The New Yorker

A rare U.S. appearance by one of Europe's leading writers. "Peter Esterházy is one of the most interesting and original writers of our time," wrote Mario Vargas Llosa. "And his ambitious magnum opus, Celestial Harmonies, is a masterwork. Esterházy's reading from Harmonies will include musical interludes by Schiff, his dear friend.

This event is approximately 1 hour and 20 minutes in duration.
