Greetings:Mr. LaValle will be appearing at 'Sunday's At Sunny', in Red Hook
Brooklyn, March 3rd. I've been here for a few events, it's a bit
cramped, but a nice old Red Hook bar, across the street from a park
with a harbor view."Victor LaValle is the author of the short-story collection
Slapboxing with Jesus, winner of the PEN/Open Book Award, as well as
the novel The Ecstatic, finalist for the PEN/Faulkner Award and the
Hurston-Wright Legacy Award. His newest novel Big Machine was named a
Best Book of the Year by Publishers Weekly, the LA Times, the Chicago
Tribune, and the Washington Post. He also won the Whiting Award for
emerging writers, and lives in Brooklyn. ""The series, co-sponsored by BookCourt bookstore (www.bookcourt.org)
(718-875-3677), will continue on the first Sunday of every month at
