THURSDAY November 27th at 10am: ALICES RESTAURANT MASSACREE

      

ALICE'S RESTAURANT MASSACREE
The song is one of Arlo Guthrie's most prominent works, based on a true incident from his life that began on Thanksgiving Day 1965 with a citation for littering, and ended with the refusal of the U.S. Army to draft him because of his conviction for that crime. The ironic punch line of the story is that, in the words of Guthrie, "I'm sittin' here on the Group W bench 'cause you want to know if I'm moral enough to join the Army - burn women, kids, houses and villages - after bein' a litterbug." The final part of the song is an encouragement for the listeners to sing along, to resist the draft, and to end war.

The "song" is in fact a spoken monologue, presented by Shandon Loring today for your listening pleasure or just to groan at and be Thankful when it's over.

SUMMER STORIES *Special Guest*: Draxtor Despres with Selections from "Infinite Jest"

 

@ NOON: Draxtor Despres presents Selections from David Foster Wallace's  "Infinite Jest" (1996)

A gargantuan, mind-altering tragi-comedy about the Pursuit of Happiness in America.

Set in an addicts' halfway house and a tennis academy, and featuring the most endearingly screwed-up family to come along in recent fiction, Infinite Jest explores essential questions about what entertainment is and why it has come to so dominate our lives; about how our desire for entertainment affects our need to connect with other people; and about what the pleasures we choose say about who we are.

Infinite Jest has an unconventional narrative structure and includes hundreds of extensive endnotes, some with footnotes of their own, and is categorized as an encyclopedic novel. Wallace’s novel is featured in Time magazine's list of the 100 best English-language novels published between 1923 and 2005.

A literary fiction bestseller after having sold 44,000 hardcover copies in its first year of publication, the novel has since sold more than a million copies worldwide

Guest and friend of the Library, Draxtor Despres, live in Voice.

Thursday August 21st at 7:00pm: SHILLELAGH LAW pt2

 The cold seeped in through his skin

Shillelagh Law
When last we saw Tam Kirkpatrick, the shadows of Cambridge revealed themselves as more than shadows: trolls stalked him, a torc bound him, and the Morrígan’s name fell heavy in the dark. Saved by Áine—dancer turned warrior—and sheltered by his strange Uncle Bogs, Tam learned his blood is not only human, but Faery, marked as Unseelie and heir to a lost shillelagh. Now, with truth uncovered and enemies unrelenting, his story presses forward into peril.
