$Adam Gopnik | JCCSF A Thousand Small Sanities: A One-Man Show JCCSF welcomes Adam Gopnik – writer for the New Yorker and author of Paris to the Moon, At the Stranger’s Gate and more – for a very special one-man show based on his latest book, A Thousand Small Sanities: The Moral Adventures of Liberalism. About the Performance On election night 2016, Adam Gopnik tried – and failed – to inspire his seventeen-year-old daughter Olivia to have faith in liberal humanism during a long neighborhood walk. In this one-hour performance, Adam tries to make up for his failure by taking her again, in imagination, on a tour highlighting the great and sometimes improbable people and places that brought the liberal vision to life. Adam Gopnik is one of the greatest thinkers and wordsmiths of our age, and this book may be his most masterful, meaningful, and enjoyable yet. He turns his sweeping intellectual imagination into a conversation with a cross-partisan American longing for a renewal of common life that scarcely knows how to name itself. In an age in which weve connected ourselves with scale but without quality, and fractured communal cohesion in part by forgetting our shared liberal inheritance, this book is essential redemptive reading. – Krista Tippett, host, On Being To learn more about JCCSF, visit us at https://www.jccsf.org/ Follow us on social media: https://www.instagram.com/JCCSF/ https://www.facebook.com/JCCSF https://www.twitter.com/JCCSF Subscribe to Our Channel: @Arts & Ideas at the JCCSF$
