Alan Furst, Sofia Coppola, George Packer and Chaka Khan

Just another manic Monday. Hey the tickets to see Sofia Coppola talk about (NOT SCREEN) The Bling Ring at Lincoln Center are first-come, first-serve and free. The tickets to see Mary J. and Chaka Khan at the Apollo are not. Also: the delightful Alan Furst is at BookCourt and George Packer and Dexter Filkins get grizzled together at Greenlight Bookstore.
