Empty the Sun (A Barnacle Book)

Skylight Books and A Barnacle Book present Joseph Mattson reading from and signing Empty the Sun!

Please note that, unlike most of our weekend events, the reading will begin at 7:30 p.m.

This will be a multimedia extravaganza featuring a reading from author Joseph Mattson, the book's soundtrack by Six Organs of Admittance (included with the purchase of the book), and archival 8 mm footage (available on DVD) compiled as a companion to the novel.

Joseph Mattson is the author of Eat Hell, and his writing has appeared in Ambit, Slipstream, Two Letters, and more. An epical rambler -- miles under him include work as a farmer, dishwasher, getaway driver, and in healthcare for the clinically mentally insane -- his home base is Los Angeles.
