About this event

Glenn Dixon and Mark Medley take to the stage to explore profound human connections in, The Infinite Sadness of Small Appliances and Live to See the Day. Meet Scout, the sentient, To Kill a Mockingbird-loving Roomba vacuum from Dixon's novel who battles an all-controlling digital Grid to save her elderly owner. Then, journey into Medley's non-fiction world of real-life dreamers—from a photographer tracking a mystery ape in Sumatra to an artist creating a 1,000-year photo exposure. Glenn Dixon's memoir, Juliet’s Answer was a Globe and Mail national bestseller. He has travelled through seventy-five countries and written for National Geographic, Psychology Today, The New York Post, The Walrus, and The Globe and Mail. He lives in Calgary. Mark Medley is a Canadian journalist and editor known for his coverage of books and culture at The Globe and Mail. Through in
