Known for her deadpan humor and skewed wordplay, Deb Olin Unferth will read selections from her first novel, "Vacation," published by McSweeney's. The Village Voice writes, "Deb Olin Unferth's dreamy, surreal debut novel reads like an extended hallucination or out-of-body experience, as unsettling as it is compelling." The free event begins at 6:30 p.m. today at The Raven Bookstore, 8 E. Seventh St.
