Sufferers of paraskevidekatriaphobia (fear of Friday the 13th) steer clear! On Friday, September 13, we'll be joined by author and unscrupulous stockbroker, Thomas W. Lawson (1857-1925) who will read an abridged version of his 1907 novel (itself about a unscrupulous stockbroker) Friday the 13th, all the while we will play 1980's slasher picture, Friday the 13th. It's Friday the 13th double trouble!

Will the film and early 20th century novel sync as neatly as The Wizard of Oz and Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon" album? And through just what sort of devilry did the late Lawson return to us? Is his Boston accent any good? Drop by Friday afternoon and see for yourself!

Please note, the film contains violent imagery.
