Friends and fans of "Jews: A People’s History of the Lower East Side,” edited by Clayton Patterson, gathered at the redesigned and renovated Bowery Poetry Club on Manhattan's Lower East Side, on Sunday afternoon, 6/2/2013. People talked, drank beer and wine - whiskey was not available - read from the book(s - it's three volumes wide) and listened. Most of the reader's were associated with The Unbearables.

The books are terrific and can be bought at such local shops as The St. Marks Bookshop, or if you aren't in the mood to support your local bookseller, Amazon.
