AN AFTERNOON WITH DAVE BARRY & CARL HIAASEN – FICTION & NONFICTION
This is a free event that requires a ticket for entry.
Class Clown: The Memoirs of a Professional Wiseass: How I Went 77 Years Without Growing Up spans Dave Barry’s life – from his childhood as the son of a Presbyterian minister to his tenure as a humor columnist at the Miami Herald and eventual member of a literary rock band. Class Clown is a vibrant celebration of a life rich with humor, absurdity, joy, and sadness. In Carl Hiaasen’s Fever Beach: A Novel, the worlds of half-baked crusader and former Proud Boy Dale, resilient newcomer Viva, and hotheaded environmentalist Twilly collide with dark money and twisted motives. The three become unlikely allies and together uncover a tangle of corruption and conspiracy led by a plastic surgery-loving billionaire couple and a clueless congressperson with delusions of grandeur.
Weekend ticketed events are available to Friends of the Fair – who enjoy early access to these programs – exclusively at this time.
