And even sooner at 192 Books, namely, tomorrow at 7 p.m. You may need to reserve your seat; give them a call just in case.

Mark Singer, interviewer
 
Calvin Trillin became the “deadline poet” at The Nation in 1990. He has written verses on current events for The New Yorker, The New York Times and National Public Radio. His books on eating—American Fried; Alice, Let’s Eat; and Third Helpings—are considered classics. He is also known for his nonfiction books, such as Remembering Denny, Killings and, most recently, About Alice. His comic novels and commentary works include Tepper Isn’t Going Out, Obliviously on He Sails and A Heckuva Job.
 
Mark Singer is a staff writer at The New Yorker.

Blogger, football follower, and fact-checker Paul Smalera thinks there are factual errors (unnecessary roughness?) in Adam Gopnik’s football story, “The Unbeautiful Game,” from last week (not online). Finally, the unassailable Nancy Franklin talks to the cheeky Patricia Marx in a web-only Q. & A.
