“Behind the Book is a literacy nonprofit working with low-income students in NYC public schools. Our mission is to excite children and young adults about reading. Working in the 1st-12th grades, we bring authors and their books into individual classrooms to build literacy skills and nurture a new generation of book readers. Tonight’s Behind the Book hosts another evening of free readings by exceptional writers. Bio’s for tonight’s readers below.” Tonight’s readings will come from DARIN STRAUSS (Chang and Eng, The Real McCoy, More Than It Hurts You, and the upcoming Truth and Lies), MARCY DERMANSKY (Bad Marie and Twins), and BEN GREENMAN (What He’s Poised to Do, Please Step Back).
