Sunday, November 8, 2026, 3:00 AM - 4:30 AM · Book Soup, West Hollywood, Los Angeles
Comedian Byron Bowers brings his book The Hardest Part of Schizophrenia Is Spelling Schizophrenia to Book Soup for a conversation instead of a standard signing. Julie Seabaugh and Alma Har'el join him along with surprise guests who lived some of the stories in the book.
Somewhere between a rock-star’s favorite haunt and your dream bookstore hideout. Towering black shelves squeeze the walls, crayons of colorful covers light up every corner, and a steady rotation of author readings adds an electric undercurrent to the browsing. Founders called it “book soup” because they mixed every genre; today you’ll find everything from photography, film, and music tomes to small-press agitprop and celeb memoirs.
