Augusten Burroughs came to the Boston Public Library last night and it was one majorly successful event. We filled the 350 seat auditorium and piled an additional 50 – 100 people in the overflow area who watched Augusten read on video. Then they all had the opportunity to get their books signed and have their pictures taken with the very popular author. This is what the BPL needs, more big author events that appeal to a young audience. I’m on the case.
