Virtual Noir at the Bar: Queens
By Alex Segura
These are challenging times, and we all need some distraction. So what better way to stay entertained than by listening to dark tales of crime and noir from some of the best mystery writers in the genre?
Added bonus - you can help an indie bookstore!
As many of you know, Kew & Willow in Kew Gardens, Queens has hosted Noir at the Bar Queens since they opened, and now they face a great challenge: like many small businesses, they've been forced to close due to the global pandemic. We've gathered this stunning group of writers to not only entertain you during isolation, but to sell some amazing novels and books to keep Kew & Willow going through this fallow period.
Here's the lineup of writers that will be reading from their work during this event, hosted by local Queens crime writer, Alex Segura:
Sarah Weinman
Megan Abbott
William Boyle
John Vercher
SJ Rozan
Hilary Davidson
Reed Farrel Coleman
Scott Adlerberg
Jill Block
Wallace Stroby
Lyndsay Faye
Richie Narvaez
Kellye Garrett
Ivy Pochoda
Jen Conley
Please swing by, pour yourself a glass of your favorite quarantine beverage (a "quarantini," perhaps?), and listen to some riveting tales exposing the darkest corners of fiction and beyond. Even better? If you hear something you like, you can order the book directly from Kew & Willow - and they'll ship it to you for only $1 in additional shipping. Quite a deal.
We hope you can join us for the first-ever virtual Noir at the Bar, and help support one of the best indie bookstores around.
