Event Description

Join us for an evening of laugh-out-loud humour as Jack Knox muses on some of the people who shape the island we live on.
Jack Knox is the author of two bestselling humour books, Hard Knox: Musings from the Edge of Canada and Opportunity Knox: Twenty Years of Award-Losing Humour Writing. Both books are based on his popular column at the Victoria Times Colonist and were long-listed for the Leacock Medal for Humour. A third book, On The Rocks With Jack Knox: Islanders I Will Never Forget, will be published in Fall 2018. Knox’s career highlights include being blasted with blowhole spray by Luna the orca whale, interviewing a nude porn star, and getting a phone call from Barack Obama four days before the 2008 presidential election. In his spare time he performs in a rock ’n’ roll band with members of his Tour de Rock cycling team.

The reading takes place Friday, November 23, at the Shoal Centre in Sidney, 10030 Resthaven Drive, at 7 pm. (Doors open at 6:30)
