MALCOLM GLADWELL IN CONVERSATION
Literary Arts is honored to present #1 New York Times bestselling author, Pushkin Industries co-founder, and Revisionist History podcast host, Malcolm Gladwell, in conversation about his new book, Revenge of the Tipping Point. (Interviewer to be announced.)
Gladwell’s seminal work, The Tipping Point: How Little Things Make a Big Difference, was published in the year 2000 and launched the global “big idea” publishing phenomenon—a hugely popular genre blending social science, history, pop culture, and business to revolutionize the way we view ourselves and the world. His books have since sold more than 23 million copies in North America alone. In his new book, Gladwell draws on completely fresh case studies to rethink and expand on his original models from The Tipping Point about how trends are born, catch on, and spread.
Revenge of the Tipping Point promises to be Gladwell’s most personal and urgent book yet, as he examines with new eyes the phenomenon of social epidemics in light of the events and lessons of the last twenty-five years.
The book will be released October 1, 2024, and the top two ticket price levels include a copy of the book. The top price level also includes an invitation to a post-event reception with the author. The books will be distributed at the event.
