Hendrix follows a public events calendar that last year included Art Spiegleman and Francine Prose with another pair of impressive authors this season. Short short fiction master Lydia Davis comes on Oct. 28 in what’s billed as “An Evening of Humor with Lydia Davis.” And wunderkind novelist and essayist Jonathan Safran Foer (“Everything Is Illuminated,” “Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close”), recently named one of the New Yorker’s “20 Under 40,” comes on Nov. 18 for a program called “Why Jews Laugh at Things That Aren’t Funny.”
