http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/05/reading_tonight_71 Only one reading tonight, but it should be a good one. Rabih Alameddine is reading at Elliott Bay Book Company with The Hakawati, which is an epic novel set in the Middle East. It's getting rave reviews from authors I adore, like Dorothy Allison and Jonathan Safran Foer. I have not read it yet; it's 500 pages, and I'm still pushing my way through Heinlein. And now, Chuck Palahniuk interviewing a transvestite pretending to be the porn-star main character of his upcoming novel, Snuff. That's all for today, but there's always more in our readings calendar....
