SUMMARY:Evening Literary Seminar: Lost Children Archive by Valeria Luiselli
DESCRIPTION:THIS SESSION IS ONLINE\nLost Children Archive by Valeria Luiselli \nArguably the most important novel of the spring seminar series\, Lost Children Archive is unlike anything Kimberly has read—and that is saying a lot! Luiselli\, who is Mexican and lives in Brooklyn\, writes incredibly beautiful prose as she follows one family’s road trip from New York to Texas\, all while the gravity of the migrant children crisis at the US border becomes more and more acute. \n Few novels of this literary caliber feel so gripping\, while also feeling so important. Named one of the New York Times Best 10 Books of 2019\, Luiselli’s novel is evidence of one of the most talented young writers working today. \n Book will be shipped directly to you so that you may read it prior to the seminar. You may also choose to pick the book up at Kepler’s in Menlo Park as another option.

SUMMARY:VIRTUAL: Launch for Miah Jeffra / The Violence Almanac
DESCRIPTION:Booksmith and The Bindery are thrilled to host the virtual launch for Miah Jeffra‘s new story collection The Violence Almanac! More to be announced soon\, but won’t you save the date and join us? \nThis event is free and all ages\, but RSVP is required. Event link will be sent to everyone who registers. \nYou can order The Violence Almanac here – we’re currently offering free shipping throughout San Francisco and the East Bay. \nAbout the book\nIn The Violence Almanac\, Miah Jeffra complicates the boundaries between culture and nature\, fiction and true-crime\, desire and pain. In this powerful fiction debut\, Jeffra takes us through the California landscape to map the various ways that violence emerges\, terrorizes and shapes our most familiar social structures. \nAn ostracized child yearns to be the hero for a rural community threatened by an escaped penitentiary inmate. An ambitious young writer receives mysterious film clips that thrust her and her boyfriend into a spiral of grief. A sex worker attempts to move on after her best friend is murdered by a john. A seismologist struggles to control his rage over a breakup that summons his internal racism. A biographer seeks to capture the truth of Andrea Yates\, the Texas mother who drowned her five children. \nFamiliar and real\, ripped from headlines yet a fiction all its own\, The Violence Almanac vacillates between visceral horror and heartbreaking humanity. With a broad array of voices\, these stories paint a portrait of the vastly diverse\, complicated\, hyper-mediated state of California and the state of ourselves\, and blurs the line between safety and danger\, love and obsession\, victim and agent of violence. \nAbout the author\nMiah Jeffra is author of The Fabulous Ekphrastic Fantastic! (Sibling Rivalry 2020)\, the chapbook The First Church of What’s Happening (Nomadic 2017)\, and co-editor\, with Arisa White and Monique Mero\, of the anthology Home is Where You Queer Your Heart (Foglifter 2021). Awards include the New Millennium Prize\, the Sidney Lanier Fiction Prize\, The Atticus Review Creative Nonfiction Prize\, the Alice Judson Hayes Fellowship\, Lambda Literary Fellowship\, and 2019 finalist for the Lambda Literary Award for Outstanding Anthology.
