Today, as traditional publishers reassess how they do business, independent presses soldier on, promoting writers they believe in by making their work available in attractive and affordable volumes. Ugly Duckling Presse and Fractious are two such publishers and tonight their authors Rachel Levitsky, Kevin Varrone, John Cotrona and Buzz Poole will read from works of poetry and fiction. Indie singer-songwriter stalwart Franklin Bruno will also perform a solo set of music.
