A Tale of Three Cities launch tonight

An edition extraordinaire of the Book Club tonight for the launch of A Tale of Three Cities, the first printed arts journal to join up the points of Europe’s golden triangle: London, Paris and Berlin. It showcases work from the best emerging – and also more established – writers and artists in each city, such as  Zadie Smith, Joss McKinley, and Todd Zuniga. There’ll be literary cocktails (Tequila Mockingbird, Huckleberry Gin etc) and one-minute portraits of attendees by Damien Cuypers, one of the journal’s contribs. And tomorrow afternoon, celebrations continue with a high tea at Shakespeare and Co with readings, cucumber sandwiches, and home-made cakes (3-4.30pm).
Fri 28 Oct, 8pm-2am.
