We open 2012 with great readers and a new venue. Join us as we welcome 2011 Nelson Algren Prize winner Billy Lombardo (The Man with Two Arms); Chicago journalist, fiction writer and poet Marco Buscaglia and DePaul and Northwestern professor Christine Sneed (Portraits of a Few of the People I’ve Made Cry). We’ll pass the hat for our featured organization: Polyphony H.S., an international student-run literary magazine for high school writers co-founded by Billy, and feature Haiyun Cho and Rachel Stone, two contributors to the magazine. Join us at 7 p.m., January 29, Black Rock, 3614 N. Damen.
Chicago Time Change!
Due to circumstances beyond our control, the Nov. 28 reading at Katerina’s will start at 6:30 p.m., not 8. Drop by after work.
Introducing A Tale of Four Cities
A Tale of Four Cities is an online literary magazine featuring fiction and creative nonfiction set in real locations in four cities — New York, London, Mumbai, and our first featured city, Dubai. This magazine seeks to highlight the similarities and differences between our cities, creating a cultural mosaic of writers and locations in a world that has grown increasingly small.

We’re back to Monday this month, for an evening with writers and instructors from StoryStudio Chicago. Join us as we hear from M. Molly Backes, Jennifer Ann Coffeen, Kate Harding and Scott Onak. 6:30 p.m. at Katerina’s, 1920 W. Irving Park Rd.
October 15th: A Literary Salon in London!
Is that London calling? Yes, our literary friends on the other side of the Atlantic are launching a new reading series called Saturday Literary Salon. If you find yourself in The Smoke this Saturday, stop by and listen to some talented writers.
London Literature Lounge partners with Tale of Four Cities for a Saturday Literary Salon.
Tale of Four Cities is a forthcoming online magazine set in real locations in four cities – New York, Dubai, London and the first guest city, Mumbai. This project bridges the gap between travel writing and creative writing, bringing together stories that reflect the real and the imagined within our cities.
