"Like Don Delillo in Libra and Phillip Roth in American Pastoral, Christopher Sorrentino [in Trance] has opened the pages of his fiction to the breadth of collective memory, and the result is one of the most humane and haunting novels I’ve read in years." –Jonathan Lethem, author of The Fortress of Solitude

"Rene Steinke’s Holy Skirts reeks of its flabbergasting era and milieu, and brims to overflowing with historical and literary pleasures."–Kurt Andersen.

–BROOKLYN READING WORKS ON MARCH 16 at 8 p.m. The Old Stone House in JJ Byrne Park on Fifth Avenue between 3rd and 4th Streets.

A night I’ve been look forward to all year: Nancykay Shapiro and Stefania Amfitheatrof, two INCREDIBLE writers will be reading at The Old Stone House!!!!

Nancykay Shapiro reads from her brand new book: WHAT LOVE MEANS TO YOU PEOPLE.   

"A powerful debut novel in the tradition of Ann Patchett and Michael Cunningham, about a young man whose denial of his past nearly destroys the new life he seeks. A gorgeous whirlwind of a family drama and an emotional, sexy love story, What Love Means To You People is rich with the atmosphere of New York and a cast of irresistible characters."

–the very talented, Stefania Amfitheatrof will read her short story, "HOME SCHOOLED."
