Now go out there (and get curious) / Mary Karr. - First edition. - 1 volume (unpaged) : illustrations ; 19 cm.

"A slightly altered version of this speech was given at Syracuse University's Commencement on May 10, 2015" -- Verso.

Every year there are one or two commencement speeches that strike a chord with audiences far greater than the student bodies for which they are intended. In 2015 Mary Karr's speech to the graduating class of Syracuse University caught fire, hailed across the Internet as one of the most memorable in recent years, and lighting up the Twittersphere. Karr explains why having your heart broken is just as -- if not more -- important than falling in love; why getting what you want often scares you more than not getting it; how those experiences that appear to be the worst cannot be so easily categorised; and how to cope with the setbacks that inevitably befall all of us.
