Michael Chabon: Promiscuous reader, horror fan

Once upon a time Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist Michael Chabon fed his reading addiction with 99-cent remainders he bought at the bookstore where he worked. “I also got an employee discount,” he says. He’s in town this week for a reading of his latest novel “Telegraph Avenue.” The event is sold out, but the 7 p.m. book signing at Brookline Booksmith is open.
