An Evening With The Sun

TheSun.jpg

This Saturday, Sy Safransky, founder and editor of The Sun magazine, will be reading at The Heartland Cafe in Rogers Park along with authors Poe Ballantine, Krista Bremer and Cheryl Strayed. The Sun is an independent, ad-free magazine that has been around for more than 30 years. Author Bill McKibben says, "[it] is the most real of magazines, a monthly reminder that everyone has a story to tell and a voice to tell it in;" the Utne Reader says "whether it's a lusty paean to a writer's fat lover or reflections on 21st century feminism, there's always something delightful to read in The Sun." The Heartland Cafe, 7000 N. Glenwood Ave., Saturday, March 3 at 8pm.
