For Orwell enthusiasts and detractors, this event is a must—a live exploration of a history that's often, quite ironically, misremembered. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia;"&gt;We are delighted to host Mr. Reed and Mr. Birns, both Professors at The New School and recommend that y'all show up on time, as space is extremely limited and seating even more so. Beer &amp;amp; wine, coffee &amp;amp; tea will be for sale! (no BYOB!) Entrance, as always, is free. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia;"&gt;Kate Eastman will be reading Joan.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia;"&gt;Part of the NYPL "Shakespeare Week."  Look forward to seeing people …&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="color: rgb(54, 50, 45); background-color: rgb(230, 244, 241);"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia;"&gt;Tuesday, April 16, 2013, 1:15 - 2:30 p.m.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="color: rgb(215, 91, 39); background-color: rgb(230, 244, 241);"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia;"&gt;LA PUCELLE, OR, JOAN OF ARC, BY WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE &amp;amp; JOHN REED:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="color: rgb(54, 50, 45); background-color: rgb(230, 244, 241);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia;"&gt;Stephen A.

					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Tuesday, October 2 marks the return of NYC's destination for the newest and best satirical and/or critical writing: after a brief hiatus, ANIMAL FARM has been released from Rikers, on a technicality, and will resurface at Legion.
					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Nothing can really substitute for ANIMAL FARM, you know.
					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The event begins at 8 pm and is free.  Legion is 790 Metropolitan Ave. at Graham Ave. in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When it comes to fun and literature, you honestly can't beat October 2: Readers are John Reed, Ginger Strand, Hope Ewing, and James Suffern.  That's how you do things.

					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Tuesday, September 25, 6:30–8 PM
					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;ICI Curatorial Hub
					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;401 Broadway, Suite 1620
					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;New York, NY 10013
					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Shadows and Outlines: An Incomplete Portrait of the Reanimation Library
					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Reanimation Library is a small, independent public library based in Brooklyn. It is a collection of books that have fallen out of routine circulation and been acquired for their visual content. Outdated and discarded, they have been culled from thrift stores, stoop sales and throwaway piles, and given new life as a resource for artists, writers and cultural archaeologists.
					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Shadows and Outlines is a set of short readings made up entirely of excerpts from the library’s holdings paired with projected images from its image archive. Sequenced, unmediated fragments of found text and an accompanying stream of decontextualized images will provide a personalized, fractured and incomplete portrait of the wide-ranging attitudes, ideologies and visual systems contained within the collection. Join us to hear readings by Reanimation Library founder Andrew Beccone and two guest readers—writers Sarah Giovanniello and John Reed. 
					&lt;/p&gt;

					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What happens after Animal Farm? In John Reed’s raucous, totally unauthorized companion to George Orwell’s barnyard political allegory, &lt;a href="http://johnreed.org/imprimery/snowballs-chance-tenth.html"&gt;Snowball’s Chance&lt;/a&gt;, exiled pig Snowball returns to the farm to implement a new regime of full-force capitalism.
					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Reed first released the book in 2002 -- when it was denounced by Christopher Hitchens and just barely escaped a lawsuit from Orwell’s estate. Snowball’s Chance is, like its antecedent, a strident political satire that has infuriated Marxists and capitalists alike.  
					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Reed will be joined by Eric Banks, former Bookforum editor and president of the National Book Critics Circle, for debate and discussion.
					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;7:00 pm

			<description>
				&lt;div class="article-summary"&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;08/20/12&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Mid-Manhattan Library presents 
					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;MonoCulture: How Popular Culture and Economy Shapes Contemporary Narrative
					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The New York Public Library 
					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;40th Street and 5th Avenue , 6th floor, 6:30 PM
					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;New York, NY 10016 
					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;212-340-0873 
					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Books, movies, television, internet, made-up and true-to life: stories move us, motivate us, disgust us—but what is the mechanism of cultural storytelling? Why do we hear some stories, and not others, and why is it that so many of the stories told by popular culture seem so familiar, so uniform? In this discussion, John Reed demystifies what makes a story mainstream, what makes a story experimental, and the underlying economic foundation of the story.
					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://johnreed.org/imprimery/snowballs-chance-tenth.html"&gt;Snowball's Chance (tenth anniversary edition from Melville House Books)&lt;/a&gt;:
					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Written in 14 days shortly after the September 11th attacks, Snowball’s Chance is an outrageous and unauthorized companion to George Orwell’s Animal Farm, in which exiled pig Snowball returns to the farm, takes charge, and implements a new world order of untrammeled capitalism.
					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The MAD-LIB[rary] will be an opportunity for the public to participate in true Mad Lib fashion in a zany, surreal, Dada-inspired, and perhaps nonsensical assemblage extravaganza. MAD-LIB[rary] invites artists and writers—an explosive combination of luminaries and rising stars—to contribute limited edition material of their choice.
					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The event will provide attendees from the realms of the art and literary worlds alike an opportunity to curate their own magazine or booklet content, and B-Y-O-creative-vision. Paying homage to the histories of literature, art, book-art, found art, flea markets, and book fairs, MAD-LIB[rary] provides an alternative from the glossy, pre-packaged culture of mass media.

					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;What’s a Writer?&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In a time when there is an explosion of aspiring writers, print &amp;amp; online journals, and graduate programs geared toward the study of writing, &lt;a href="http://thecoffinfactory.com/events-2/" target="_blank"&gt;The Coffin Factory&lt;/a&gt; aims to discuss what it means to be a writer today.  The panel will include John Reed, Bonnie Nadzam, and Jacques Strauss.

					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;SPECIAL NOTES: NPR is apparently doing a big music show right after
					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;us, so we absolutely must be off the stage at 8:30. I think we're
					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;getting booted from the actual club at that time too, so we'll
					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;probably need to go to a nearby bar to hang out afterwards.

					&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;InDigest also presents InDigest 1207, a reading series that takes place monthly in New York City and quarterly in Minneapolis. In addition to their own work, readers are encouraged to bring in something that has informed or influenced them in some way. The result is often funny, sometimes strange, but always interesting, showing us how we are all constantly influenced by what we see, hear, and read.
					&lt;/p&gt;
