I need to move things around on Monday so I can attend (for like 15 minutes)!Here are some reasons you should come to our Halloween party with Granta magazine on Monday:
- The party starts at 7PM, so you can stop by before you go clubbing or whatever you kids do.
- Literary-themed costumes encouraged but not required; come non-literary, come as you are, we still love you.
- PHOTO BOOTH. Free! To capture your literary glory, from sponsor Have Booth Will Travel.
- The whole party is FREE, but for a $10 donation you’ll get a Granta tote bag with the latest issue, featuring new stories by Don DeLillo and Stephen King, Halloween candy, one drink ticket, and a mystery paperback. It could be a classic, it could be this mystery I found about a crime-solving cat. TRICK OR TREAT.
- National Book Award nominee Julie Otsuka (The Buddha in the Attic) and Rajesh Parameswaran (I Am an Executioner forthcoming from Knopf in April 2012) will read scary stories from Granta.
- I will be dressed as Moby Dick.
I need to go to this. (Early.)
