SUMMARY:Maxim Osopv Presents Kilometer 101
DESCRIPTION:New conversation series between fiction and non-fiction writers\, in which writers discuss the ways in which they grapple with similar subject matter through different lenses\, and with different perspectives. The stories and essays in this volume—a follow-up to his debut in English\, Rock\, Paper\, Scissors—tackle major questions of modern life in and beyond Russia with Osipov’s trademark blend of daring and subtlety. Deceit\, political pressure\, ethnic discrimination\, the urge to emigrate\, and the fear of abandoning one’s home\, as well as myriad generational debts and conflicts\, are as complexly woven through these pieces as they are through the lives of Osipov’s fellow Russians and through our own. RSVP required.

SUMMARY:The American Way: A True Story of Nazi Escape\, Superman\, and Marilyn Monroe
DESCRIPTION:Family lore had it that author Bonnie Siegler’s grandfather Jules crossed paths with Marilyn Monroe in Midtown Manhattan late one night in 1954\, her white dress flying up around her as she filmed a scene for The Seven Year Itch. Siegler wasn’t sure she quite believed her grandfather’s story…until\, cleaning out his apartment\, she found the film reel. That discovery would prompt her to investigate her grandfather’s seemingly-tall tales — and lead her in pursuit of a remarkable\, poignant piece of forgotten history\, bridging old Hollywood\, the birth of the comic book\, and the Holocaust. The American Way is a kaleidoscopic tale of hope and reinvention\, of daring escapes and fake identities\, of big dreams and the magic of movies\, and what it means to be a real-life Superman. Authors of The American Way\, Bonnie Siegler and Helene Stapinski\, will be joined in conversation by NY Times contributor Bob Morris.

SUMMARY:Governors Island Winter Ice Sculpture Show
DESCRIPTION:Live ice carv­ing\, enjoy music and warm drinks\, and vote on their favorite works for the ​“People’s Choice Award\,” pre­sent­ed to the fan favorite. Ice sculp­ture com­pe­ti­tions and exhi­bi­tions have a long his­to­ry around the world but are not typ­i­cal­ly seen on a grand scale in New York City — and are often lim­it­ed to artists who spe­cial­ize in ice carv­ing. The Gov­er­nors Island Win­ter Ice Show strives to democ­ra­tize this pop­u­lar activ­i­ty\, trans­form­ing it into one open to all artists regard­less of dis­ci­pline and pre­vi­ous experience.
