Granta and the Liars’ League present a one-night-only performance of Chris Adrian’s mordantly funny story of an unravelling psyche.

At the medical school of the University of California, San Francisco, a doctor takes to the stage to give a lecture on the burgeoning academic field of narrative medicine. However, his commentary on the subject is gradually overtaken by his own illness narrative and his strange, abusive relationship with his mother. The performance will last one hour. A bar will be on service on the night.

Tickets can be bought at the door, but please RSVP to events@granta.com to reserve a seat.
