Poetry Night at The Book Cellar


Here’s a heads-up to a cool bookstore and wine bar in Lincoln Square (4736-38 North Lncoln Avenue). The Book Cellar has cool wine and sandwiches, and an eclectic book collection. They also frequently feature local authors reading from their work.

This is short notice, but this Thursday, April 9 at 7:00 p.m. is Poetry Night, featuring Jenene Ravesloot, Barry Siegel, Laura Van Prooyen and Jacquee Thomas. I saw Jacquee at a tasting last night, after losing touch with her for several months. She has a sparkling wit and intelligence which definitely comes through in her writing and on her web site.

Unfortunately, I have to work at The Night Thing this Thursday, but I invite you to catch Jacquee and the other poets, and have a glass of wine on me!
