Pelton & Roy @ SPT 12/1

Small Press Traffic is pleased to present a reading by

Ted Pelton & Camille Roy

Friday, December 8, 2006 at 7:30 PM

Ted Pelton is the author of three books, most recently the novel Malcolm and Jack (Spuyten Duyvil, 2006), which Cris Mazza says “reminds us of the quagmire that is history. Fact and fiction can't be easily boxed; everything is true even as everything isn't. Don't even bother trying to pinch yourself every so often while reading to see if it’s ‘real.’ Pelton’s book does the pinching for you.” Pelton is the publisher of Starcherone Books and teaches at Medaille College of Buffalo.

Camille Roy is a writer and performer of plays, poetry, and fiction. Her two most recent books are Cheap Speech, a play, from Leroy, and Craquer, from 2nd Story Books (both 2002). Her book Swarm (two novellas) was published by San Francisco's Black Star Series with funding from the San Francisco Arts Commission. She is a founding editor of the online journal Narrativity. Girlfriends magazine says “Camille Roy is as brilliant and horny as William S. Burroughs with his consciousness way raised” and Robert Gluck calls hers “gorgeously perverse…starstruck langugage.”

Unless otherwise noted, events are $5-10, sliding scale, free to current SPT members and CCA faculty, staff, and students.

Unless otherwise noted, our events are presented in Timken Lecture Hall, California College of the Arts 1111 Eighth Street, San Francisco (just off the intersection of 16th & Wisconsin)
