A Reading with Julio Torres:
A Perfect Gift Book Launch
Tuesday, November 3
Doors: 6:30 PM / Show: 7 PM

Join BBMT and Julio Torres for the official book launch of Torres’ new book, The Perfect Gift. Torres will be reading excerpts from The Perfect Gift with puppet accompaniment, of course! 

A copy of The Perfect Gift will be included with each ticket purchase and available for pick up at the event, courtesy of Book Soup.

In this beautifully illustrated book from a brilliantly absurd mind, Julio Torres, cult comedian, filmmaker, and former Saturday Night Live writer, brings his signature surreal humor to this creative collection of gift ideas for every person and occasion. A playful yet profound reflection on human connection, each gift builds on the relationship between the giver and recipient. These are not simply objects—these are bridges: a sublet map to maximize the space in your apartment; a patient grandson who helps with technology; tiny, little stairs so your dreams can come out at night and dance. Delightfully impractical, yet deeply artistic and innovative, The Perfect Gift is the perfect kids book for adults: a celebration of the imagination, especially for those who expect the unexpected.
