Kelli Dunham's fifth book, Freak of Nurture, a collection is humorous essays that none other than lesbian comedy godmother Kate Clinton called “laugh out loud outrageous storytelling”

Of course Kelli would decide to have the release party in a funeral home. Dunham demonstrates that hilarity and chaos reign when you combine what her therapist calls “deep biological optimism” with a hearty midwestern work ethic and determination to make bad ideas a fantastic reality. Whether she is writing about hitch-hiking across Haiti to help out with disaster relief, the death of two partners in seven years, getting kicked out of the convent for having “too much self esteem” or living on a houseboat in Philadelphia in the winter, Kelli Dunham‘s humorous interpretation of difficult situations is both inspiring and entertaining.

Will include hilarious readings, a surprise guest or two plus nearby reception to follow!
