Named after a gritty immigrant neighborhood in Paris, Barbes is a Park Slope jazz and world music venue and bar booking acts as diverse as the namesake hood -- from Balkan disco to Brazilian ''forro pe de serra.'' The international crowd (body odor, ahoy!) and real Absinthe from the bar cap the truly globe-trotting flavor. Catch readings from locals and luminaries alike including Auster, Klosterman, Ames and your self-promoting neighbor.
