In 1950 Charles M. Schulz debuted a comic strip that is one of the
indisputable glories of American popular culture—hilarious, poignant,
inimitable. The *Peanuts* characters continue to resonate with millions of
fans, their beguiling four-panel adventures and television escapades
offering lessons about happiness, friendship, disappointment, childhood,
and life itself.

Join editor *Andrew Blauner* and four distinguished contributors to the LOA
collection *The Peanuts Papers: Writers and Cartoonists on Charlie Brown,
Snoopy & the Gang, and the Meaning of Life*, for a seventieth anniversary
conversation reflecting on the deeper truths of Schulz’s deceptively simple
strip and its impact on their lives and art and on the broader culture.





*Wednesday, December 16 6:00 – 7:00 pm ET*

*Writers and Cartoonists on Charlie Brown, Snoopy & the Gang, and the
Meaning of Life*

*Edited by Andrew Blauner*

In *The Peanuts Papers*, thirty-three writers and artists demonstrate just
how much *Peanuts* means to its many admirers—and the ways it invites us to
ponder, in the words of Sarah Boxer, “how to survive and still be a decent
human being” in an often bewildering world.

Featuring essays, memoirs, poems, and two original comic strips, here is
the ultimate reader’s companion for every *Peanuts* fan.
