26 August 08: The Possible City --
NOW AVAILABLE IN PAPERBACK

A VERY SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT FROM NATHANIEL POPKIN AND PHILLY SKYLINE:

Dear friends, family and readers,

The Possible City: Exercises in Dreaming Philadelphia, my second book, hits stores today. The book is illustrated by photographs taken by Brad Maule, my compatriot and editor of PhillySkyline.com. It's published by Camino Books (who recently published Joe Sixpack's Philly Beer Guide).

City Paper will excerpt the book on September 4. It will be used for first year writing at Philadelphia University, where I am writer-in-residence.

A public book launch will take place at Johnny Brenda's Tavern, in Fishtown, on Sunday night September 21, 8PM, followed by:

• Headhouse Books/Athanaeum reading/signing in late October, TBA

• Central Branch Free Library, Skyline Room, reading/signing November 8, 2PM

• Penn Bookstore, reading/signing November 19, 6PM
We'll have more information on the book launch at JB's in the days to come. In the meantime, stop by your friendly neighborhood bookstore or friendly corporate bookstore web site and pick up a copy today, hot off the presses.
