SUMMARY:VIRTUAL EVENT: David Eagleman\, Livewired
DESCRIPTION:Bestselling author and neuroscientist David Eagleman will discuss his new book\, Livewired: The Inside Story of the Ever-Changing Brain. “Eagleman delivers an intellectually exhilarating look at neuroplasticity. In his view\, the brain’s ability to reconfigure connections between its different areas in response to feedback is ‘quite possibly the most gorgeous phenomenon in biology\,’ and also holds exciting practical applications. Eagleman’s skill as a teacher\, bold vision\, and command of current research will make this superb work a curious reader’s delight.” —Publishers Weekly

SUMMARY:VIRTUAL: Vanessa Veselka / The Great Offshore Grounds
DESCRIPTION:Booksmith hosts a virtual event with Zazen author Vanessa Veselka for her new novel The Great Offshore Grounds. \n** Please note ** \n>  This is a free event\, but RSVP is required. RSVP here.\n>  If you’d like a copy of The Great Offshore Grounds\, you can purchase one here\, below\, or when completing your registration. We are currently offering free shipping throughout San Francisco and the East Bay. \n\nOn the day of their estranged father’s wedding\, half sisters Cheyenne and Livy set off to claim their inheritance. It’s been years since the two have seen each other. Cheyenne is newly back in Seattle\, crashing with Livy after a failed marriage and a series of dead ends. Livy works refinishing boats\, her resentment against her freeloading sister growing as she tamps down dreams of fishing off the coast of Alaska. But the promise of a shot at financial security brings the two together to claim what’s theirs. Except\, instead of money\, what their father gives them is information–a name–which both reveals a stunning family secret and compels them to come to grips with it. In the face of their new reality\, the sisters and their adopted brother each set out on journeys that will test their faith in one another\, as well as their definitions of freedom. \nMoving from Seattle’s underground to the docks of the Far North\, from the hideaways of the southern swamps to the storied reaches of the Great Offshore Grounds\, Vanessa Veselka spins a tale with boundless verve\, linguistic vitality\, and undeniable tenderness. \n\nVanessa Veselka is the author of the novel Zazen\, which won the PEN/Robert W. Bingham Prize. Her short stories have appeared in Tin House and ZYZZYVA\, and her nonfiction in GQ\, The Atlantic\, Smithsonian\, The Atavist\, and was included in Best American Essays and the anthology Bitchfest: Ten Years of Cultural Criticism. She has been\, at various times\, a teenage runaway\, a sex worker\, a union organizer\, an independent record label owner\, a train hopper\, a waitress\, and a mother. She lives in Portland\, OR. \n\n  \nThis event is free and all ages\, but RSVP is required. \nTo have a copy of The Great Offshore Grounds sent to your door\, order here or add the book to your cart when you register.
