Figuring it out — getting it right or getting it wrong — is all part of being a new father. Elisha Cooper has recorded every single moment of it in this charming, laugh-out-loud funny, and deeply loving book.

ALAIN DE BOTTON
The Architecture of Happiness
Friday, October 13 at 7 PM
With this entertaining and stimulating book, Alain de Botton examines the ways architecture speaks to us, evoking associations that, if we are alive to them, can put us in touch with our true selves and influence how we conduct our lives. The Architecture of Happiness encourages us to open our eyes and really look at the buildings in which we live and work.
