There’s nothing that gets our blood pumping like some good, old-fashioned fortress o’ertaking. Which is why we know you’ll be more than a little hungover on Monday, July 15th, the day after Bastille Day. But we hope you’ll manage, with stomach still half-full of red wine and baguettes, to lift the beret from your eyes and come celebrate the uprising of the modern nation – and support 826CHI – at Essay Fiesta. 7pm at The Book Cellar. Join hosts Karen Shimmin and Willy Nast for a rousing round of the Marseillaise, as well as this lineup of literary revolutionaries:
- Citoyenne d’Honneur Erin Diamond
- 2nd Story-er Ozzie Totten
- Essay Fiesta Superfan Rachel Kossy
- Writer/Editor/Teacher/Marry-er Sheri Reda
- StoryClub Impresario Dana Norris
Sacrebleu!
