(READING) Richard Hugo House's fall "Inquiry" has traditionally been a bit of a mess, but this year it's looking
sleek and downright alluring. The (suitably creepy) schedule for Friday the 13th includes a
talk on obsessiveness by Greil Marcus, a music critic with a singular talent for locating points where pop music wriggles in and out of the wider culture; and
Stranger Genius Rebecca Brown, who'll talk about untrustworthy childhood memories. (
