A Reading for Al-Mutanabbi Street will be held on Sunday, March 3, 2024, at 3:00 PM at Best Video Film and Cultural Center. This event is free and open to the public.

On the anniversary of the 2007 bombing of the booksellers’ market in Baghdad, and in defiance of the ongoing attacks throughout the world, including the United States, against reading and readers, excerpts from the anthology Al-Mutanabbi Street Starts Here will be read by Daisy C. Abreu and Stephen Vincent Kobasa.
