This is the second of our 2017 Summer Series performances, and we're featuring two of the coolest masters of short fiction for the hottest month of the year.
Carlos Hernandez is the author of the short story collection The Assimilated Cuban's Guide to Quantum Santeria (Rosarium 2016) and over 30 works of SFF, including drama and poetry. By day, he's a CUNY Associate Professor of English and a game writer and designer. He is dying to announce his next big venture, and will as soon as the contract is signed!
C. S. E. Cooney csecooney.com/@csecooney is an audiobook narrator, the singer/songwriter Brimstone Rhine, and author of World Fantasy Award-winning Bone Swans: Stories (Mythic Delirium 2015). Her poetry collection How to Flirt in Faerieland and Other Wild Rhymes features “The Sea King’s Second Bride,” winner of the Rhysling Award in 2011.
Her short fiction and poetry can be found at Lightspeed, Strange Horizons, Apex, Uncanny, Goblin Fruit, and elsewhere. Upcoming in December 2017, her short story “Lily White and the Thief of Lesser Night” will be anthologized in Ellen Datlow’s Mad Hatters and March Hares: All New Stories from the World of Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland.
The New York Review of Science Fiction Reading Series provides performances from some of the best writers in science fiction, fantasy, speculative fiction, etc. The series usually takes place the first Tuesday of every month, but maintains flexibility in time and space, so be sure to stay in touch through the mailing list, the Web, and Facebook.
The Cafe has excellent food, a coffee bar, beer and wine. The Jenna freebie table will offer books and goodies, as will the raffle for any who donate.
