From Sunday, March 13, through Friday, March 18, the Columbia College Chicago Fiction Writing Department presents its 15th Annual Story Week Festival of Writers: Class Acts.

As it has for the last 15 years, Story Week 2011 will offer six days jam-packed with readings, conversations with authors, panels, performances and book signings at venues throughout Chicago-all free and open to the public.  It is co-sponsored in part by the Chicago Public Library and Metro.

The Chicago Public Library is pleased to host Jennifer Egan, acclaimed author of A Visit from the Goon Squad, in conversation with Donna Seaman.  A booksigning will follow.
