The Stranger

(READINGS BY GENIUSES, WITH FOOTNOTES) Jonathan Raban is going to read about an encounter with England's gloomy genius Philip Larkin. Matt Briggs is going to read a very short story involving a peach and an earwig. John Olson is going to read a prose poem that seems to boil insanely from within. Between readings by these past Stranger literary Geniuses, various Stranger editors will present footnotes—alluring images, true histories, sidelong connections, made-up stuff. By the way, the Henry's exhibition on the Genius Awards is up for two more weeks. (Henry Art Gallery, 15th Ave NE and NE 41st St, 543-2280. 7 pm, free.) by Christopher Frizzelle
