Underground Literary Tour Takes on Philly

Wed., July 18, 7pm. Free. Germ Books, 2005 Frankford Ave. 215.423.5002. www.germbooks.com

Any event featuring Eric "Jellyboy the Clown" Broomfield and a reading from Wred Fright's "sort-of-autobiographical," garage-band-inspired The Pornographic Flabbergasted Emus is bound to be awesome. You can also hear Crazy Carl Robinson read from Fat on the Vine, which is about drugs, self-hatred, psychotic parents and a guy losing his virginity to a lesbian. It's also semiautobiographical, but Robinson won't say how much. The mysterious King Wenclas from the even more more mysterious Underground Literary Alliance will also be in attendance. Is the ULA a subversive prank? Or a genuine revolution in American literature? One suspects a bit of both. (St. John Barned-Smith)
