Literary Punch Card
Some of the Twin Cities literary organizations, namely Coffee House Press, Graywolf

have birthed a new idea for rewarding people for attending literary readings: the Literary
Punch Card. Attending may be reward enough, but now Twin Citians have the chance
to win literary swag. The process is simple: obtain a Punch Card, attend punch-eligible
events, have the card punched, collect 12 punches and the Punch Card serves as a
$15 coupon at Micawber’s, Magers and Quinn or Common Good Books. You’ll see
punch-eligible events listed on Rain Taxi’s literary calendar and designated in the Loft’s
press releases with a punched symbol. People interested in more information can visit

*****Planning Ahead*****
Madeleine Peyroux
Monday, October 10, 7:30 pm
Guthrie Theater, 818 Second Street South, Wurtele Thrust Stage
Renowned for her interpretive song skills, Madeleine Peyroux followed her creative
muse on 2009’s Bare Bones by challenging herself to write a full album of her own
compositions. Now with Standing on the Rooftop, she delves deeper into her
reinvention, not only writing the bulk of the songs but also pushing past any
preconceived notions about her music and daring herself to expand her sonic
template. “I wanted to explore some new sounds,” says Peyroux, best known for her
stunning, gold-certified 2004 album, Careless Love. “That would be the most exciting
thing that I could think of as a musician. I’ve been recording my voice and my guitar
together long enough to know this was not the limit.” Peyroux, who was named Best
International Jazz Artist at the 2007 BBC Jazz Awards, has lost none of her compelling
ability to reinvent a lyric and give it soul-shaking meaning through her intricately
nuanced vocal shadings. Now she has broadened her musical palette, embracing an
organic, American roots sound. Tickets available at the Guthrie Theater Box Office,
charge by phone at 612-377-2224 and online at GuthrieTheater.org. For information:
