Live from the NYPL: Geoff Dyer

Whether he's talking about photography, John Berger, WWI or Doughnut Plant doughnuts, Dyer writes with a keen eye and a sense of the ecstatic properties of language. Slipping among personal essay, criticism and tangential flights of fancy, Dyer takes on life aboard an aircraft carrier in his new Another Great Day at Sea. He'll talk today with the NYPL's Paul Holdengräber.
