Calling all REAL men: Come out to the Book Cellar Thursday!

This Thursday night, April 8, will be “Guys Night” at the Book Cellar in Lincoln Square. There’ll be lots of scratching, spitting, and thinking about sex every 7 seconds.

And if you can’t find your own way to the Nonfiction Section, don’t ask any of us to ask for directions! Burp!

I’ll be the humble host of this night of readings, which will feature:

Jonathan Eig, reading from his about-to-be released blockbuster, Get Capone.

Bryan Gruley, reading excerpts from his further-down-the-road-to-be-released sequel to Starvation Lake, entitled The Hanging Tree. Hockey, northern Michigan, egg pie, MURDER–the works!

Peter Schilling, author of a book that’s by-god in the store, The End of Baseball, a fictional account of Bill Veeck’s attempt to field a major-league team in 1944 with all Negro League players.

And to make everything even muy mas macho, I’ll read a few poems from Bardball and throw around words like mackinaw, ingot, and smelt. Come on out at 7:00 and support your local indie bookstore!
