THE NAMING OF NAMES

December 2005 Readings & Events at Elliott Bay Book Co.

An average of ten times a week we are proud to present contemporary authors in the intimate yet casual setting of our reading room, a book-lined room that accommodates a pleasantly sized audience, next to the Elliott Bay Café. These are generally free or with nominal charge. Tickets for designated events are available two weeks in advance of the event on a first come, first served basis. Questions and signings often follow these readings. A complete monthly listing of author readings is available in the store or online (see below), or you may subscribe to have the schedule sent to you by email or (for a $5 annual fee — just call the store to sign up) by snail mail each month. Please join us!
