David Levithan and Jens Lekman On Love Songs And Being Trapped Inside A Wedding Cake

David Levithan and acclaimed singer-songwriter Jens Lekman have teamed up to write an intoxicating comedy about a lovelorn wedding singer, loosely based on Lekman’s own experiences as a part-time wedding singer. With Songs For Other People’s Weddings, Levithan and Lekman have crafted a deeply tender comedy about love, the many ways relationships evolve, and the intricacies of the creative process. The duo spoke to us about working together to create one of the summer’s most eagerly awaited books.
