A priest, a rabbi and Anne Rice walk into a bar …
By Wade Kwon
Serial vampire novelist Anne Rice is in town today to promote another book about another walking undead freak: Jesus.
She’s signing books, including her latest, "Christ the Lord: Out of Egypt," at the Alabama Booksmith in Homewood at 6 tonight. “Christ the Lord” is Rice’s portrait of the savior as a young man.
But it’s her other promotional stop that has us intrigued.
Rice will be part of a panel discussion — with a minister, priest and rabbi — at Southside Baptist. The event (which includes a signing) takes place at 6 p.m. Saturday at 1016 19th St. S. [map]
Too bad it overlaps with the mythic clashing of tigers and dogs that night.
