[Yale-readings] Writing Program Readings: Wednesday at Koffee on Audubon

[Nancy Kuhl]

>Yale Summer Sessions Writing Program Wednesday series of intimate readings 
>at Koffee On Audubon
>  continues on
>  July 26 7 PM
>with two of the most remarkable and unclassifiable writers now working in 
>the genres referred to as Fantasy and Science Fiction:
>
>PAUL DIFILIPPO is the author of hundreds of short stories and could be a 
>type of the old fashioned unstoppable pulp writer if his work wasn't so 
>unique and aslant.  His big novel Ciphers seems to go on the shelf with V 
>and Underworld but actually needs a shelf of its own.  Go to 
>http://www.pauldifilippo.com/ where you get (among other things) an 
>example of the collage envelopes Paul's friends are lucky to recieve in 
>the mail, usually full of selected ephemera that can tell your fortune if 
>properly understood.
>
>PAUL PARK has been working in the SF genre for many years under the 
>handicap of being concerned, as a writer, with matters that  most stories 
>set in the future or on other planets are not:  the ambiguities of 
>experience, the fragility of human ambitions and understanding.  But it 
>makes his books appealing to readers who care little for the standard 
>stuff of SF.  He has recently embarked on what might be mistaken for a 
>multiple-volume fantasy novel -- A Princess of Roumania is the first 
>volume --  but is in fact a complete alternative Europe with its own 
>dynasties, gods, hells and nations.
>
>Only New Haven Appearance by these Secret Masters of modern literature.
