Submitted by the Event Organizer

Join in for a special night of stories and memories to celebrate the life of Harry Mathews and the publication of his last novel, The Solitary Twin, with readings by Daniel Levin Becker, Roman Muradov, Brandon Bussolini, and Gordon Faylor.

Mathews was the only American member of the French avant-garde literary society Oulipo, and he has also been associated with the New York School of Poets. With John Ashbery, Kenneth Koch, and James Schuyler, he started the literary magazine Locus Solus in 1960. His honors included a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts and an award for his fiction from the American Academy of Arts and Letters.
