Time to Sign Up for the
April 30 Reprise
of the Book Discussion &
Video Presentation of
BEFORE I DIE

The video will be of the extended/overseas version

(about twice the length of the US version)

The December event was sold out, so if you want to see this great adaptation, sign up soon! This novella is of special interest because it was published in two different versions – one in magazine form in The American Magazine and a second, with significant variations including a different ending, in the book Trouble in Triplicate. Those registering for the event will be provided in advance with a reprint of the magazine version so that everyone can read both versions before the discussion.

The A&E TV series adaptation of the story in Trouble in Triplicate will be shown during the discussion. It is 1:32:05 vs. the US version of 45 minutes. Pete's Tavern will serve a buffet dinner including an open bar (beer, wine, and soft-drink selections). Room capacity is limited – please register early ($45.00 per person)!

SAVE THE DATES:

  • Book Discussion of The Silent Speaker on May 21, 2018 at Playwright Tavern, Times Square
  • BRUNCH HUNT to be held on June 2 (details to coming soon)
