Amy Tan Tribute & Roast
Event posted by Ben Fong-Torres
14 Oct 2009 8:00 pm
The author is honored, celebrated, and roasted (perhaps "braised" is the better word) at this Litquake event. The braising will be done by a host of literary and musical lights. Ben Fong-Torres is the MC and will do some Elvis to kick things off. A song for Amy, to the tune of "Love Me."
