A THIS IS NOT A READING SERIES EVENT

Presented in partnership with The Beguiling, (that's us!)

Join graphic artist Maurice Vellekoop as he launches his hilarious illustrated look at a fictitious opera world. Quiz Master Stuart Hamilton, of CBC Radio Two's Saturday Afternoon at the Opera, will lead Vellekoop and other panelists in a live taping of CBC's Opera Quiz.

PS: I saw a copy of the book and it is FABULOUS. Seriously, beautifully illustrated and hilarious. If you're an opera fan (or know someone who is), get a copy of this and make sure to come out to the book launch.

Check out other great "This Is Not a Reading Series" events at the website of the excellent Pages Bookstore.
