Reading: Hotel Theory

On May 24, 2007, poet and cultural critic Wayne Koestenbaum presented a reading from his book Hotel Theory, which is two books in one: a meditation on the meaning of hotels and a dime-novel about Lana Turner and Liberace. The two books run concurrently—one fiction, one non-fiction—in twin columns. Listen to the audio clips below for excerpts from the evening.
