The date is accurately reflected on the Events Calendar. December's Big Book:Tom's Crossing by Mark Danielewski NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the bestselling author of House of Leaves comes a magisterial novel about two friends determined to rescue a pair of horses set for slaughter.  Hard to figure how so much awful horror could've started out with just them two horses and not a one yet named. . . While folks still like to focus on the crimes that shocked the small city of Orvop, Utah, back in the fall of 1982, not to mention the trials that followed, far more remember the adventure that took place beyond municipal lines. < PREVIOUS CALENDAR NEXT >
