The final Talking in the Library event for the fall semester took place on Thursday, October 25, 2018 in the Mary Tefft White Cultural Center in the University Library. Essayist and short story writer, Steve Almond, read from his works and discussed how art intersects with rage.

Almond is the author of nine books of fiction and non-fiction, including the New York Times bestsellers Candyfreak and Against Football. His latest book, Bad Stories, is a literary investigation of "what the hell happened to our country."

Almond also hosts the popular New York Times podcast Dear Sugars with best-selling author Cheryl Strayed, and is a frequent contributor to WBUR in Boston.
