Clock Without A Face Book Event

May 20th,from 7-9pm, we'll have McSweeney's The Clock Without A Face, an "Armchair Treasure Hunt" book. The stories contained within are works of fiction, but hidden within those stories are clues to the locations of the 12 numbers from a clock's face. Each numeral is a handmade, jewel-encrusted digit, designed and hand-crafted by Anna Sheffield, and is buried somewhere around the country.

So read the book, find the jewels! Eli Horowitz (editor of McSweeney's) and Mac Barnett will be on hand with additional clues as to the location of these bejeweled numbers while they're at Atomic Books.

For more clues and info check out Gus Twintig.
