Heights Library (2345 Lee Road)*.  Read on for details:

*Ready for Publication: OddyFest #24*

* *

*To salute the forthcoming (self-)publication of Oddy Ringmaster*

*Matt Greenfield’s prose volume Just So-me Stories, OddyFest looks at*

*the publishing industry this month…*

* *

*“The Fish and the Sea”: a play by Matt Greenfield*

A frustrated author, a frustrated artist, and a frustrated composer are the
centerpiece of this critical look at “making it” in today’s commercialized
art worlds. (The title derives from an author’s attempt to re-create
Hemingway’s novella *The Old Man and the Sea* from the marlin’s
perspective.)



*“The Benefactor of Hope”: a short story by Matt Greenfield*

*(story reading by LaJuan Foust)*

A Cleveland librarian’s search for literary fame ultimately means her
compromising the basic aspects of her novel (a look at the Cleveland textile
industry during the Civil War) to make it more marketable in this equally
poignant and satirical investigation of artistic integrity.



*The Odd FRIDAYS:*

*August 6 / August 20*

*Show starts at 7:15*

* *

*BRODY-NELSON ROOM*

*of the Cleveland Heights Library, Lee Road Branch*
