LOUNGE LIT

The BBF, along with our partners 90.9FM WBUR and The Drum Literary Magazine, present Lounge Lit, a series of literary outings this winter and spring at the hip (and aptly named!) Think Tank. Interactive, dynamic, and unexpected, these events--which benefit both the BBF and The Drum are sure to spice up your after-work routine. Purchase tickets to each event individually, or attend the whole series and save! Click here for all the details. 

Boston Book Festival 2011: Books Live!

After an amazing opening session Friday night with cast and creators of The Wire, sunny skies and fall leaves provided the perfect backdrop to the Boston Book Festival on Saturday, October 15. There was music, food and fun at the Copley Square street fair, while standing-room-only crowds in historic venues enjoyed fascinating discussions with novelists and non-fiction authors alike. Even our youngest attendees got into the act at the energetic Kids' Keynote. If you missed this year’s BBF, or just want to relive it, check out the audio and videos from some of our events. And stay tuned for news of more BBF events to come!
