I usually don’t post things like this, but there are two great events happening tonight that I wish I could be at.<\/p>\n
First off, Archipelago Books is having their “third biennial fundraising auction” tonight at the Cultural Services of the French Embassy at 972 Fifth Ave. from 6:30 to 8:30. Lots of great stuff up for auction (you can see it all by clicking here<\/a>) and the proceeds will go to a very worth cause. <\/p>\n Also happening tonight is the next event in the Words Without Borders reading and conversation series at Idlewild Books<\/a> this time featuring Natasha Wimmer and Francisco Goldman talking about Bolano’s 2666<\/em>. I can’t imagine a better event . . . especially since I’ve heard that FSG<\/span> will be selling special 2666<\/em> t-shirts. (I hope this rumor isn’t unfounded, and if anyone will buy me one, I swear I’ll pay you back.) Bud Parr has a column<\/a> at WWB<\/span> previewing this event.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I usually don’t post things like this, but there are two great events happening tonight that I wish I could be at.
