Tom Lutz Reads ‘Born Slippy’

“Born Slippy” is the first novel from Tom Lutz, the founder and editor-in-chief of the Los Angeles Review of Books. This dark but humorous modern noir examines the relativity of evil in our capitalist society through a tale about a struggling carpenter who befriends a sociopathic young man, follows him to Asia, falls for his wife, then traverses a downward spiral of consequences.

Lutz will read selections from “Born Slippy” and converse with Steph Cha, author and noir editor at the L.A. Review of Books.
