Reading Today

If you get up and around well on a Saturday, you should head down to the Hugo House, where there will be an interview with local author Ryan Boudinot about many things, possibly including his upcoming novel Sperm and Egg, which I am very excited to read. If you didn't attend last night's Personal Injury reading, $5 gets you in the door and also gets you a bagel or two. It's the bargain of the day.

And then there are two readings at Elliott Bay Book Company. First, Donna Hilbert reads from The Green Season, a collection of poems about the death of a husband. Billy Collins likes Hilbert (and refers to her as "curios," which I think should be "curious"), but you shouldn't hold this against her.

A couple hours after Hilbert reads, Tristan Taormino reads from Opening Up: A Guide to Creating and Sustaining Open Relationships. This is the third big open relationship book published this year. Something must be in the water.

The full readings calendar, including the next week or so, is here.
