Slice Magazine Literary Trivia Showdown
To celebrate the launch of our fourth issue, Slice hosted its first annual Literary Trivia Showdown on March 23rd. Three teams of five authors, five editors, and five agents went head-to-head to see who knows the most about the literary realm. It was a close match, but the authors walked away with the golden trophies, with the editors and agents trailing closely behind.
Many thanks to everyone who attended! The evening was a huge success, and we couldn’t have asked for a more amazing community of bookworms to share the night with.
Check out these reviews for a recap of the shenanigans:
The authors: Jonathan Lethem (Motherless Brooklyn, The Fortress of Solitude), Chip Kidd (The Cheese Monkeys, The Learners), A.J. Jacobs (The Year of Living Biblically), Darin Strauss (More Than It Hurts You, Chang and Eng), Susan Jane Gilman (Undress Me in the Temple of Heaven, Hypocrite in a Pouffy White Dress)
