Shelf Awareness
McNally Jackson Books and Housing Works Bookstore Cafe are partnering again for the second annual Downtown Literary Festival on April 13, showcasing the literature and writers of downtown New York City. This year, the festival has expanded to three locations--including the Bowery Poetry Club--and added an opening party and children's programming. A full schedule should be available soon, but festival highlights will include a downtown-themed literary cabaret; a celebration of the poetry of Alice Notley; the Greatest 3-Minute Bad Apartment Stories; the city as superhero, villain and more in comics and graphic novels; stories of music venues gone but not forgotten; a tour of NYC through movies and literature; and an exploration of the legacy of 1950s cool in NYC.
