Let’s Walk: Simon Critchley and Judith Thurman WAIT LIST ONLY

In our signature series where art, literature, and philosophy meet archaeology, an eclectic group of guests—from poets and writers to actors and art critics to classicists and scientists—wander through the exhibition and engage in insightful conversations inspired by the artifacts.

Judith Thurman is the author of Isak Dinesen: The Life of a Storyteller, which won the 1983 National Book Award for Non-Fiction, and was the basis for Sydney Pollack’s Oscar-winning film Out of Africa; Secrets of the Flesh: A Life of Colette, which won the Salon and Los Angeles Times book awards for biography; and Cleopatra’s Nose: 39 Varieties of Desire, a collection of essays and profiles, which was a New York Times Best Book of the Year. Thurman has been a Staff Writer and cultural critic at The New Yorker since 2000. She lives in Manhattan.
