Nicole Levin “Diary of a Mad Girl” – Discussion and Book Signing at Page Against the Machine
Los Angeles author and climate activist Nicole Levin discusses her illustrated literary comedy, “Diary of a Mad Girl; Me Vs. The Oil Industry Vs. My Nonprofit Job,” at an in-store event at Page Against the Machine (2714 E. 4th Street, Long Beach, CA, 90814) on Saturday, October 17, 2026 at 7:00pm. Levin will be in conversation with fellow climate activist Nancy Woo, exploring the book’s themes of climate anxiety, burnout culture, millennial disillusionment, and the absurdity of surviving late-stage capitalism.
