“Boyle is a writer who chooses a large canvas and fills it to the edges.”
—Barbara Kingsolver

Bestselling author and Santa Barbara's own idiosyncratic muse, T.C. Boyle returns to celebrate the Museum’s grand reopening and read from his lively and thought-provoking new novel Talk To Me. With an intoxicating mix of humor and profundity, Boyle explores a world where people can really talk to animals as he turns to the questions few of us admit to wondering about. What does it mean to be human? Is fully communicating with another being possible? Can one fully know a person or animal?
