Two events coming up to tell you guys about:

rumbleFunk Rumble Block Party! 12pm-10pm, Saturday, July 11th - The first Funk Rumble Block Party is happening in Chinatown this weekend, in conjunction with the Chinatown Artwalk (6pm-10pm). This “half music festival, half block party” is going to feature some amazing soul and funk… homegrown LA stuff no less! And Narrow Books will be there too, selling books and t-shirts. There’ll be food vendors (including vegetarian), a load of designers and artists, and a full bar open over at the Grand Star Jazz Club. Admission is $5 before 4pm, $8 after. And kids under 10 get in free.

** Special for this event, we will have a limited amount of signed copies of Yeti Logic (Rojo) by Megan WhitmarshEach copy has a unique yeti drawing! 

Joseph Mattson reading at Book Soup, 7pm, Thursday, July 16th - Author John O’Brien sadly committed suicide two weeks after hearing that his first novel, Leaving Los Vegas, was being made into a film. But he left behind several hard-hitting novels that were published posthumously. The amazing press Akashic Books has just released his final unpublished work, Better, and Narrow Books author/editor Joseph Mattson will be reading from that novel along with writers Jerry Stahl and O’Brien’s sister, Erin.

Been super busy lately, sorry about the lack of posts. Several on the way, well overdue.
