Tuesday at the library is a literary two-fer: In September, the famously fatwa’d Salman Rushdie published the autobiographical Joseph Anton: A Memoir (Knopf), which recounts his life in hiding using the titular pseudonym. He will discuss his new book alongside British author Martin Amis, whose 14th novel, Lionel Asbo: State of England (Random House), is the satirical tale of a teenager living with his thuggish but surprisingly caring uncle.
Tue., Oct. 30, 7:30 p.m., $15, Free Library of Philadelphia, Central Branch, 1901 Vine St., 215-686, freelibrary.org.
