Wells Tower Magers & Quinn Booksellers	Tue., February 9, 7:30pm	Uptown/ Eat Street	Literary Events
When Wells Tower's collection of short stories, Everything Ravaged, Everything Burned (Farrar, Straus and Giroux), debuted, its sparkling prose caught the eye of many a lit critic.

Chuck U: Robozoology Nicademus Art and Framing	Daily from Sat., January 9 until Tue., February 9	Macalester/Groveland	Art Art - Galleries

The Poet's Groove Blue Nile Restaurant & Lounge	Every week Tuesday, 10:00pm	Uptown/ Eat Street	Spoken Word
