More about Litcrawl: Litquake’s legendary Lit Crawl is going east for a massive, one night literary extravaganza in New York City on September 27. The madcap concept, created in 2004 in SF, will kick-off in the Lower East Side at 6 p.m. (highlighted by events curated by FSG Books and the New Yorker’s Ben Greenman), wander up to the East Village for 7:15 readings (with Canteen Magazine and NY Tyrant starring) then over the bridge to Williamsburg for delights at 8:30 (where Opium’s Literary Death Match and BOMB Magazine will be in the spotlight). All followed by a party for the ages in Williamsburg!
