On Monday, April 15th, 2024, writer and linguist Amanda Montell will celebrate the publication of her latest book, "The Age of Magical Overthinking," at the Atlas Performing Arts Center in Washington, DC. Montell will discuss the book, which explores the cognitive biases and power of magical thinking in the modern age, with acclaimed Washington Post columnist Alexandra Petri. Attendees will receive a copy of the book with their ticket purchase. Montell's previous works, "Wordslut" and "Cultish," have been praised for their wit, brilliance, and insightful cultural criticism, and her new book promises to continue this tradition. The event will be an in-person engagement, without any streaming or video presentation options. Fans and readers will have the opportunity to engage directly with Montell and Petri, delving into the themes of the book and the author's unique perspective on the human mind's tendencies towards irrationality and magical thinking in the modern information age. This event promises to be a thought-provoking and engaging exploration of these important ideas.
