12th Annual Brooklyn Indie Party! A Brooklyn Book Festival Bookend Event

  • Greenlight Bookstore Brooklyn, New York (map)

On the Friday before the Brooklyn Book Festival, Greenlight once again partners with CLMP, as well as some of Brooklyn’s best independent book and magazine publishers, to throw a (virtual) Brooklyn-sized party celebrating the spirit of literary independence in Brooklyn! Twenty local independent presses have selected their top titles of the season, and have contributed questions for an epic Brooklyn Literary Trivia contest—the champion wins a Greenlight tote bag stuffed with a copy of every title! With a soundtrack curated by Akashic Books’ Johnny Temple, drinks demo by One Story’s Hannah Tinti, and more surprises in store, this virtual event hearkens back to the unforgettable packed bookstore parties of years past, for a festive start to Brooklyn Book Festival weekend!
