SUMMARY:Santiago Gamboa
DESCRIPTION:DIESEL\, A Bookstore in Oakland welcomes Santiago Gamboa to the store to read and sign\, Return to the Dark Valley\, on Wednesday\, September 27th at 7:00 pm. \nSantiago Gamboa is one of Colombia’s most exciting young writers. In the manner of Roberto Bolaño\, Gamboa infuses his kaleidoscopic\, cosmopolitan stories with a dose of inky dark noir that makes his novels intensely readable\, his characters unforgettable\, and his style influential. \nManuela Beltrán\, a woman haunted by a troubled childhood she tries to escape through books and poetry; Tertuliano\, an Argentine preacher who claims to be the Pope’s son\, ready to resort to extreme methods to create a harmonious society; Ferdinand Palacios\, a Colombian priest with a dark paramilitary past now confronted with his guilt; Rimbaud\, the precocious\, brilliant poet whose life was incessant exploration; and\, Juana and the consul\, central characters in Gamboa’s Night Prayers\, who are united in a relationship based equally on hurt and need. These characters animate Gamboa’s richly imagined portrait of a hostile\, turbulent world where liberation is found in perpetual movement and determined exploration. \n\n\n\n\nSantiago Gamboa was born in Bogotá\, Colombia. His debut novel\, Páginas de vuelta (1995)\, established him as one of the most innovative voices in Colombian literature. He has since published seven novels and two collections of short stories. His journalism appears regularly in El Tiempo (Colombia) and Cromos\, and he is a regular contributor to Radio France International. Previously Colombia’s cultural attaché in New Delhi\, he has lived in Rome and Paris\, and currently lives in Calí\, Colombia.

SUMMARY:Bone: An Evening w/ Yrsa Daley-Ward
DESCRIPTION:Celebrated poet Yrsa Daley-Ward presents bone\, a poignant collection of autobiographical poems about the heart\, life\, and the inner self. \nABOUT BONE \nBone. Visceral. Close to. Stark. \nThe poems in Yrsa Daley-Ward’s collection bone are exactly that: reflections on a particular life honed to their essence—so clear and pared-down\, they become universal. \nFrom navigating the oft competing worlds of religion and desire\, to balancing society’s expectations with the raw experience of being a woman in the world; from detailing the experiences of growing up as a first generation black British woman\, to working through situations of dependence and abuse; from finding solace in the echoing caverns of depression and loss\, to exploring the vulnerability and redemption in falling in love\, each of the raw and immediate poems in Daley-Ward’s bone resonate to the core of what it means to be human. \n“You will come away bruised.\nYou will come away bruised\nbut this will give you poetry.”
