On Friday May 21st, even books is hosting
THE LIBRARY OF UNWRITTEN BOOKS – a night in honour of Richard Brautigan’s The Abortion, or, library lovers and amateur writers unite!
here’s their description:
Don’t be put off by the title; you only need to be willing to expel stories, not babies! This swinging sixties classic is a parody of the romance genre in which a librarian falls in love with a traffic-stopping beauty. Love leads to sex, sex leads to babies, babies lead to Tijuana … but the real point is the sweet library that Brautigan invents, to which anyone can submit a story; sketched in crayon, daubed with jam, heaving with mathematical calculations. Anything goes! We’ll have a real-live librarian on hand to accept your manuscripts, along with the psychedelic strains of local shoegazers, a listening corner, Tijuana tequila times, human dioramas and more.
the event is at: From 7pm-11pm, ClubHouse @ Performance Space, 245 Wilson St, Eveleigh.
if anyone goes, please let us know how it was!
