The Budapest Bardroom’s Autumn Dusk Literary Evening on October 15

October 8, 2009

Alas, the night grows long, the days grow cold and the leaves change color. Come and celebrate your melancholic literary side with us and enjoy the works of some of Budapest’s notable contemporary writers. And win prizes! On October 15, we will be treated to three local artists. Zaid Sethi will read from his new collection of short stories, The End of the World, with his uniquely universalistic impressions of people from around the world. New Orleans-based poet, Stephen Tribell has recently made Budapest his home and will be performing his poetry, and Stephen Ladek will be rounding out the evening with his own music.

In addition, you’ll have a chance to win some unique, local treasures when hosts Jeff Taylor and Kalman Farago test the audience’s knowledge on a range of obscure literary topics as the Budapest Bardroom Quiz runs throughout the evening. For all potential bards, be prepared to participate in Poem of the Evening. The night’s best impromptu poem (determined by audience reaction) will be selected from audience submissions collected throughout the evening.
