Lit 50 is coming June 10

Newcity is pleased to announce the return of our biggest literary issue of the year, Lit 50: Who Really Books in Chicago, timed to coincide with the Midwest’s biggest literary event, the Printers Row Lit Fest.

While last year’s edition chronicled many behind-the-scenes individuals who bring Chicago’s literary culture  to life, this year we’re focusing on the artists, in order to offer a fresh perspective, a fresh list. So this time around, look for Chicago’s leading writers, poets, book designers and so on. (Here are links to the previous two editions: 2009 and 2008)

It will be an issue that lovers of the book cannot miss.

If you have not reserved space, please do so. This edition will reach Chicago’s most avid supporters of the literary arts, not to mention that your investment will help support Newcity’s ongoing increase in coverage at a time when everyone else is stepping back.

Please reserve space by this Friday, June 4. Artwork is due Monday, June 7.

And be sure to keep up with our literary coverage at Newcity Lit.
