The author responsible for gritty, vividly etched portrayals of urban America in such novels as Freedomland, Clockers and Lush Life, as well as the hit TV shows The Wire and The Night Of, curates an evening of stories.

Edie Falco (Nurse Jackie), Maggie Gyllenhaal (The Honourable Woman), John Turturro (The Night Of), Rita Wolf (My Beautiful Laundrette), and others perform stories selected and introduced by the author responsible for gritty, vividly etched portrayals of urban America in such novels as Freedomland, Clockers and Lush Life, as well as the hit TV shows The Wire and The Night Of.
