In honor of Will Eisner’s birthday (March 6th), Caitlin McGurk (that’s me!) and graduate student Ben Owen will be reading aloud from Eisner’s A Contract With God in Thompson Library, Room 150A from 3:00-4:00pm. We will be reading the story Cookalein– a tale of interweaving relationships between tenement residents from the Bronx, as they leave the city for their summer vacation in the Borscht Belt.
Please join us, and have an excellent Will Eisner Day!
