We're back home this Monday in the big bar, 8-10pm! The entrance will be through Dutch Boy Burger, 766 Franklin, between Lincoln and St. John's.

Literary icon MARY GAITSKILL (Bad Behavior, Veronica) will be making a very rare NYC appearance. She'll read from her latest story collection, Don't Cry, followed by a Q&A and book signing.

And be sure to come out and support local star MAX ROSS (The Onion, The Harvard Review), who'll be reading from his memoir-in-progress.

Storyteller/writer RYAN BRITT (The Liar Show, Nerve) and poet KATIE BYRUM (a Pushcart Prize nominee) will round out the lineup.

As always, the event is FREE and we'll have DRINK SPECIALS.
