Leleux Does Houston
June 3rd, 2008 at 12:57 pm
Heads-up that Observer contributor and Houston native (never mind his self-imposed New York City exile) Robert Leleux is scheduled to give a reading in his hometown Thursday night, June 5. The occasion comes hot on the heels of the grand opening of downtown H-town’s recently renovated Central Public Library, and marks the kick-off of the library’s new LGBT reading series. Leleux, author of The Memoirs of a Beautiful Boy (from which he’ll read) and several fine Observer pieces you can peruse here and here (plus another you’ll have to buy our July 11 “Summer Books” issue to check out), will be preceded by the Houston Pride Band, and accompanied, no doubt, by much proud hootin’ and hollerin’ from family, friends, and fans of fine humor writing. The reading is slated for 7 p.m., and Leleux will autograph his book afterward. If you’re in the neighborhood, drop by and give him a hand.
