Green Apple Books presents: Alan Black reading from Kick the Balls @ the Edinburgh Castle (Tenderloin)
| Saturday, June 21 | ||
| 10:00 am |
Green Apple and the Edinburgh Castle team up again to celebrate the publication of Kick the Balls, a hilarious memoir of soccer, parenting, and Scotland. Perhaps these blurbs will tempt you to come lift a pint and enjoy a few laughs on Saturday night, June 21.
“Alan Black makes me laugh in a way no one else can. He’s so brutally funny that I worry a little. I think, ‘Someone’s feelings might be getting hurt here,’ but really I don’t give a shit because I am laughing so hard. Nothing gets by him, and that’s a scary thought.” –BETH LISICK, author of Helping Me Help Myself & Everybody into the Pool.
“You might think you’ve heard the usual criticisms of modern parenting and what kids are like because of it. You might occasionally long for the good ole’ days when kids played games without a parent there to cheer and console. But not until you read Alan Black’s savagely hilarious Kick the Balls does it all come clear - not just how strange a time we live in today, but how strange it was back then, too.”
–PO BRONSON, author of What Should I Do With My Life
