Canadians Pretty Up Gotham

Tonight:

As part of NYC's Upper North Side Canadian Authors Series, travel down to McNally Robinson in Soho for a reading from Toronto's David Helwig, who's written Coming Through: Three Novellas. To learn more about him and the 20+ titles he's written over the years, here's a link to his website http://www.davidhelwig.com/index2.htm

In other literary news, journalist Naomi Klein (No Logo) has a new book out: The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism. She launched the book here on Monday and will be making the rounds stateside this month. On October 1st, she'll be in Calgary. Here's a link to video of her talking about the book.
