A Reading by Chris Kraus

Sun, Apr 9
5:00 pm
Free

Chris Kraus, a noted figure in the underground art scene and a
founding editor of the radical publisher Semiotext(e), will read from
her new novel Torpor at City Lights on Sunday, April 9.

Set in 1991, Torpor follows a New York couple as they journey across
the former Soviet Bloc in hopes of adopting a Romanian orphan and
salvaging their marriage. Savagely ironic and deeply lyrical, Torpor
explores the swirling mix of nationalisms, capital flows and negative
entropy that define the present, haunted by the persistence of
historical memory.

The event is free and open to the public.
