As you might have read, the Tin House Writers Workshop is well underway, with a ton of readings, interviews, and seminars going on for the next week or so. (Don’t miss TC Boyle Sunday night at Reed College, 3203 SE Woodstock, 8 pm!)

Tonight at Powell’s are the three latest authors from the Tin House New Voices series, which is a collection of wonderful trade paperbacks published by first-time authors that Tin House really believes in. I haven’t read all three of these books in their entirety, but I’ve read various chapters and stories from each, and they’re none too shabby. There’s Yes, Yes, Cherries, a collection of tragicomic stories, mostly about women and the ridiculousness of romance. Saving Angelfish is a pretty compelling novel about a drug-addicted actress, writeen by a former drug-addicted actress whom you might remember as Angela from Mr. Belvedere. Finally, there’s Josh Goldfaden, who wrote a very funny book of stories called Human Resources. Cross your fingers that he reads “Looking at Animals,” a really smart story about a National Geographic photographer who starts shooting in his own neighborhood as if it was the untamed wild.

The reading is at Powell’s on Burnside, and starts at 7:30 pm.
