Evanstonian and DePaul assistant professor Christine Sneed reads from her debut story collection tonight. Portraits of a Few of the People I've Made Cry is the winner of the Grace Paley Prize in Short Fiction. Publishers Weekly calls Portraits "ten finely delineated tales featuring protagonists entangled in less-than-ideal romantic scenarios." Steve Almond says "I can't recall a time I tore through a story collection with such unbridled gratitude. Christine Sneed is fearless." Women and Children First, 5233 N Clark St., (773) 769-9299, Wednesday, November 17, 7:30pm.
