Join us October 22nd as six writers read on the idea of walls, division, boundaries, borders. We’ll be surrounded by the installation by Osman Khan, “On Which Side, The Barbarians?” As usual we’ll be eating and drinking and generally enjoying the hell out of the night.
It's true, it's been five years since our first Buffet.
We hope you can make it, and bring a dish to pass. Come hungry. Come thirsty. It’s a potluck!
