Literary Pub Trivia at Trident Booksellers

August 17, 2016 | 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm

Ah, summer in Boston. A time to catch Love’s Labours Lost on the Common, amble along the Esplanade, take a dip in Walden Pond . . . and find out just how much you’ve forgotten since English 101. That’s right—Literary Pub Trivia is back for the fifth summer, with plenty of questions and brainteasers on everything from Aesop’s Fables to Zadie Smith. This year’s throwdown takes place at 6pm, Wednesday, August 17 at Trident Booksellers & Café, 338 Newbury Street in Boston.

The host for the evening is the charming and satin-voiced Jack Lepiarz of 90.9 WBUR. Prizes donated by the BBF, Trident, GrubStreet, and more! Put together a team (6 people max!) or meet some fellow trivia-minded ragamuffins on our Dickensian Orphans team.

Tickets are $15/person. Don’t delay– this event always sells out!
