Alphabetical Diaries

Los Angeles Public Library Podcasts

The award-winning, beloved author of Pure Colour, Sheila Heti returns to ALOUD with her new thrilling confessional Alphabetical Diaries. Over ten years, Heti kept a record of her thoughts, then arranged the sentences from A to Z. Known for her experimental literary works—passionate and reflective, joyful and despairing—Heti masterfully structures her diary entries into a pastiche of unconventional structure that keeps the reader entirely engaged. Co-presented with Skylight Books.
