CalArts' Black Clock

| 1 Comment

Mark Sarvas' blog The Elegant Variation has a report from the launch party for Black Clock, the new literary journal from CalArts edited by Steve Erickson. It was held at REDCAT at the Disney Hall. The LA Weekly also introduces the journal in a piece by Matthew C. Duersten.

Black Clock, the new literary journal published by CalArts, launches this month with enough heavyweights to collapse newsstand shelves: David Foster Wallace, Bruce Bauman, Nicholas Royle, Heidi Julavits, Rick Moody, Aimee Bender, Joanna Scott and Jonathan Lethem, in the first issue alone.

Gawker covers the New York launch party.
