Chicago Printer's Row Book Fair

Coming June 12-13 on the same weekend as the Blues Fest as usual.  Which makes for a long day and something to read between acts.  First impressions on reading the schedule:

Now they're calling it the Printer's Row Lit Fest?

I should tell my costuming friends about this: Saturday: 12:30 p.m. Katherine Joslin author "Edith Wharton and the Making of Fashion" and Daneen Wardrop, author of "Emily Dickinson and the Labor of Clothing."

I should tell some other friends about this:  Saturday: 12:30 p.m. Graphic Novels and Mysteries Panel discussion with Brian Azzarello, Todd Allen and Jon Jordan.

And this: Sunday: 11 a.m. Comic Book 101 Workshop Presented by Terry Gant, owner of Third Coast Comics.

I should probably not attend a cooking demo by the pastry chef at the Trump Hotel as no good can come of this.

In the category of Sometimes a Typo Changes Everything:  A book titled "The Lost Summer of Louis May Alcott."   Indeed.
