SUMMARY:VIRTUAL EVENT: Mikki Kendall\, Hood Feminism
DESCRIPTION:VIRTUAL EVENT: Bookshop Santa Cruz welcomes author Mikki Kendall who will discuss Hood Feminism: Notes from the Women That a Movement Forgot.  \nRegistration for this free Crowdcast event will begin soon. \nThere have been many incredible moments and efforts in feminist history\, and women all over the world continue to fight to be seen and heard in all the chaos of modern society. However\, mainstream feminism has continually failed to recognize some of the most pressing issues facing most women today. In Hood Feminism\, Mikki Kendall\, the creator of the viral hashtag #SolidarityIsForWhiteWomen\, calls out the myopia of mainstream white feminism. She argues that women of color and other marginalized people have long been doing the work of fighting for women’s rights.Their personhood and concerns should be regarded with the same—and in some cases even more—urgency as the issues that now dominate feminist rhetoric. \nThe essays in Hood Feminism draw upon Kendall’s personal experiences while looking at the cultural and political landscape of today’s feminism to shine a light on the issues that marginalized women face\, and urges the would-be feminist to embrace a kind of feminism that moves beyond just being an ally to being an accomplice\, an advocate\, and collaborator. \n“This book is an act of fierce love and advocacy\, and it is urgently necessary.”—Samantha Irby\, author of Meaty and We Are Never Meeting in Real Life \n“My wish is that every white woman who calls herself a feminist (as I do) will read this book in a state of hushed and humble respect. Mikki Kendall is calling out white feminists here—and it’s long overdue that we drop our defenses\, listen to her arguments carefully\, and then change our entire way of thinking and behaving. As Kendall explains in eloquent and searing simplicity\, any feminism that focuses on inequality between men and women without addressing the inequalities BETWEEN women is not only useless\, but actually harmful. In the growing public conversation about race\, class\, status\, privilege\, and power\, this text is essential reading.” —Elizabeth Gilbert

SUMMARY:Online Book Launch of THE STEEL BENEATH THE SILK with Author Patricia Bracewell
DESCRIPTION:Please join us on Thursday\, March 4\, 2021 at 7 PM PST as we welcome author Patricia Bracewell to discuss her new novel\, THE STEEL BENEATH THE SILK. \nThis book is the breathtaking conclusion to Bracewell’s Emma of Normandy Trilogy\, brimming with treachery\, heartache\, tenderness and passion as the English queen confronts ambitious and traitorous councilors\, invading armies and the Danish king’s power-hungry concubine. \nThe Zoom meeting will be at https://us02web.zoom.us/j/85120377510. \nYou can pre-order your copy here: http://bit.ly/ggpSteelBeneath \nABOUT THE STORY \nThe first two books of the trilogy\, SHADOW ON THE CROWN and THE PRICE OF BLOOD\, introduce the 11th-century queen of England\, Emma of Normandy. In 1002\, fifteen­-year-old Emma crosses the Narrow Sea to wed the much older King Æthelred of England\, whom she meets for the first time at the church door. With a husband who mistrusts her\, stepsons who resent her and a bewitching rival who covets her crown\, Emma must defend herself against her enemies. \nIn the final book\, THE STEEL BENEATH THE SILK\, Emma is determined to outmaneuver her adversaries and protect her children and countrymen. She forges alliances and wins the affection of the English people. But her growing love for a man who is not her husband and the imminent threat of a Viking invasion jeopardize both her crown and her life. \n  \nABOUT THE AUTHOR \nPatricia Bracewell taught literature and composition before embarking upon her writing career. A lifelong fascination with British history and a chance\, on-line reference to an unfamiliar English queen led to years of research\, a summer history course at Downing College\, Cambridge\, and a stint as writer-in-residence at Gladstone’s Library in Wales. Patricia lives with her husband in Northern California. Visit www.patriciabracewell.com/

SUMMARY:Contemporary Classics - Maud's Line
DESCRIPTION:Patricia Holt\, former book editor at the San Francisco Chronicle\, continues her popular book group\, “Contemporary Classics.” \nA book should stand the test of time before becoming a classic\, but very often\, critics and literary judges leap to praise books as “instant classics” soon after publication. These are the titles Pat’s group will hold up to scrutiny—in fact\, the chewier\, more literary\, more dense\, and “hard to read” the better. One needn’t have read widely\, studied literature\, or learned about literary criticism to join. Just drop in or join us for the whole series\, and let the developing wisdom of the group be your only guide. \nEmail Pat to register and to receive a Zoom link for the meeting. You can write to her at p.holt12@comcast.net. \nSpring dates: \nMarch 3: Interior Chinatown by Charles Yu \nApril 7: This Mournable Body by Tsitsi  Dangarembga \nMay 5: Maud’s Line by Margaret Verble \nJune 2: Shuggie Bain by Douglas Stuart \nJuly 7: Real Life by Brandon Taylor \n\nAbout Patricia Holt\nPat was book editor and critic at The San Francisco Chronicle for 17 years and has been writing reviews and book industry commentary at Holt Uncensored since 1998. She has facilitated book groups for the past 15 years and also joins the Marin West Review’s editors\,  Myn Adess and Doris Ober\, on Radio Bookmobile\, a lively discussion on West Marin Community Radio KWMR\, usually the first Thursday of every month at 10-11 a.m.\, about the most beautiful passages and stirring controversies they can find on the current book scene.

SUMMARY:Using Invented and Foreign Languages as Tools for World Building: A Fiction Workshop with Rita Bullwinkel
DESCRIPTION:A dynamic Fiction Workshop facilitated by author\, Rita Bullwinkel. This workshop will be held every Saturday 10 AM – 12 PM from Mar 6 – Apr 10.\n\nCLA WRITERS WORKSHOPS are open to individuals of all backgrounds–including those who are exploring creative writing for the first time–as well as aspiring writers who want to prepare their work for publication. Workshops are modeled on graduate-level creative writing courses\, and may include short in-class writing assignments to jumpstart the writing process\, as well as work outside of class that will entail reading the work of select published writers\, critiquing the work of other workshop participants\, and writing a piece to be workshopped by the class. Each participant will receive written comments from the instructor. Workshops are led by accomplished local authors\, including students and alumni of the San Jose State University Creative Writing Program.\nTuition $250 // Eventbrite\n\nCOURSE DESCRIPTION:\nOne of the big things that makes us\, as readers of fiction\, read on into a book is mystery and\, very often\, that mystery comes in the form of a word or idea we don’t yet understand. As a writer\, one way to rope your readers in is to deliberately use words that you know your audience might not understand\, and then\, through context\, teach your readers the meaning of those words. This is a tool used frequently in fantasy as well as literary writing. In this workshop we will explore several examples of this invaluable literary tool and learn how we can best deploy this strategy in our own fiction.\nRita Bullwinkel is the author of the story collection Belly Up\, which won the 2018 Believer Book Award. Bullwinkel’s writing has been published in Tin House\, The White Review\, Conjunctions\, BOMB\, Vice\, NOON\, and Guernica. She is a recipient of grants and fellowships from The MacDowell Colony\, Brown University\, Vanderbilt University\, Hawthornden Castle\, and The Helene Wurlitzer Foundation. Both her fiction and translation have been nominated for Pushcart Prizes. She is an Editor at Large for McSweeney’s and a Contributing Editor for NOON. She lives in San Francisco and teaches at the California College of the Arts.

SUMMARY:Poemscaping: Trim. Write. Repeat.
DESCRIPTION:Surprise the Line presents a special one-time guest workshop led by experienced writers on a topic of their choosing every first Saturday of the month. This month\, you will learn a bold and effective strategy to revise your working poems! \nThis revision workshop helps poets create new horizons for their work by creating a no-pressure environment where trimming a poem leads to its rebirth. \nWhat We’ll Do Together:\nIn this workshop\, participants will learn how to systematically revise a poem that they have been struggling with.

SUMMARY:Conversations with Authors - Jean Shinoda Bolen (Virtual Event)
DESCRIPTION:Jean Shinoda Bolen’s book Like a Tree\, which grew out of her experience mourning the loss of a Monterey pine that was cut down in her neighborhood\, provides an insightful look into the fusion of ecological issues and global gender politics. \nThat moment of loss\, combined with Bolen’s practice of walking among tall trees\, led to her deep connection with trees and an understanding of their many complexities. From their anatomy and physiology\, to trees as archetypal and sacred symbols\, Bolen expertly explores the dynamics of ecological activism spiritual activism and sacred feminism. And\, she invites us to join the movement to save trees. While there is still much work to be done to address environmental problems\, there are many stories of individuals and organizations rising up to make a change and help save our planet. The words and stories that Bolen weaves throughout this book are both inspirational and down-to-earth\, calling us to realize what is happening to not only our trees\, but our people. By writing about both the work of organizations like Greenpeace and the UN Commission on the Status of Women\, Bolen highlights her passions and shares her unique vision for the world. \nJean Shinoda Bolen is a psychiatrist\, Jungian analyst\, and an internationally known author and speaker. She is a Distinguished Life Fellow of the American Psychiatric Association and a Diplomate of the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology\, a former clinical professor of psychiatry at Langley Porter Psychiatric Institute\, University of California Medical Center and a past board member of the Ms. Foundation for Women\, the International Transpersonal Association\, and the C.G. Jung Institute of San Francisco. She is the author of thirteen books in over one hundred foreign editions and is in three acclaimed documentaries. \nTerry Tempest Williams is the author of 17 books of creative nonfiction including the classic in environmental literature Refuge: An Unnatural History of Family and Place; When Women Were Birds; The Hour of Land: A Personal Topography of America’s National Parks; and most recently\, Erosion: Essays of Undoing\, just out in paperback. A member of the American Academy of Arts and letters\, she is currently writer-in-residence at the Harvard Divinity School and lives in Castle Valley\, Utah with the writer Brooke Williams. \n

SUMMARY:Suzanne Simard: Pioneering scientist discusses her anticipated book\, Finding the Mother Tree
DESCRIPTION:Suzanne Simard\, a pioneering scientist who has changed the way we understand forest ecosystems\, joins us to discuss her highly anticipated first book\, Finding the Mother Tree (Knopf). \n“Suzanne Simard’s Finding the Mother Tree reminds us that the world is a web of stories\, connecting us to one another. Her vivid manuscript carries the stories of trees\, fungi\, soil and bears—and of a human being listening in on the conversation . . . I have great admiration for her science and her storytelling alike. These are stories that the world needs to hear.” —Robin Wall Kimmerer \nThis event is co-sponsored by Emergence Magazine and will be streamed on our Crowdcast channel. \nREGISTRATION INFO COMING SOON. \nAbout Finding the Mother Tree\nSuzanne Simard is a pioneer on the frontier of plant communication and intelligence; she’s been compared to Rachel Carson\, hailed as a scientist who conveys complex\, technical ideas in a way that is dazzling and profound. Her work has influenced filmmakers (the Tree of Souls of James Cameron’s Avatar) and her TED talks have been viewed by more than 10 million people worldwide. \nNow\, in her first book\, Simard brings us into her world\, the intimate world of the trees\, in which she brilliantly illuminates the fascinating and vital truths–that trees are not simply the source of timber or pulp\, but are a complicated\, interdependent circle of life; that forests are social\, cooperative creatures connected through underground networks by which trees communicate their vitality and vulnerabilities with communal lives not that different from our own. \nSimard writes–in inspiring\, illuminating\, and accessible ways–how trees\, living side by side for hundreds of years\, have evolved\, how they perceive one another\, learn and adapt their behaviors\, recognize neighbors\, and remember the past; how they have agency about the future; elicit warnings and mount defenses\, compete and cooperate with one another with sophistication\, characteristics ascribed to human intelligence\, traits that are the essence of civil societies–and at the center of it all\, the Mother Trees: the mysterious\, powerful forces that connect and sustain the others that surround them. \nSimard writes of her own life\, born and raised into a logging world in the rainforests of British Columbia\, of her days as a child spent cataloging the trees from the forest and how she came to love and respect them–embarking on a journey of discovery\, and struggle. And as she writes of her scientific quest\, she writes of her own journey–of love and loss\, of observation and change\, of risk and reward\, making us understand how deeply human scientific inquiry exists beyond data and technology\, that it is about understanding who we are and our place in the world\, and\, in writing of her own life\, we come to see the true connectedness of the Mother Tree that nurtures the forest in the profound ways that families and human societies do\, and how these inseparable bonds enable all our survival. \nAbout Suzanne Simard\nDR. SUZANNE SIMARD was born in the Monashee Mountains of British Columbia and was educated at the University of British Columbia and Oregon State University. She is Professor of Forest Ecology in the University of British Columbia’s Faculty of Forestry.

SUMMARY:James Canton Discusses his new book\, The Oak Papers
DESCRIPTION:James Canton joins us from the UK to discuss his book\, The Oak Papers (HarperOne). \n“A profound meditation on the human need for connection with nature\, as one man seeks solace beneath the bows of an ancient oak tree.”—Peter Wohlleben\, author of The Hidden Life of Trees \nThis event will be streamed on Crowdcast. \nREGISTER HERE \nAbout The Oak Papers\nJoining the ranks of The Hidden Life of Trees and H is for Hawk\, an evocative memoir and ode to one of the most majestic living things on earth—the oak tree—probing the mysteries of nature and the healing role it plays in our lives. \nThrown into turmoil by the end of his long-term relationship\, Professor James Canton spent two years meditating [PA1]beneath the welcoming shelter of the massive 800-year-old Honywood Oak tree in North Essex\, England. While considering the direction of his own life\, he began to contemplate the existence of this colossus tree. Standing in England for centuries\, the oak would have been a sapling when the Magna Carta was signed in 1215. \nIn this beautiful\, transportive book\, Canton tells the story of this tree in its ecological\, spiritual\, literary\, and historical contexts\, using it as a prism to see his own life and human history. The Oak Papers is a reflection on change and transformation\, and the role nature has played in sustaining and redeeming us. \nCanton examines our long-standing dependency on the oak\, and how that has developed and morphed into myth and legend. We no longer need these sturdy trees to build our houses and boats\, to fuel our fires\, or to grind their acorns into flour in times of famine. What purpose\, then\, do they serve in our world today? Are these miracles of nature no longer necessary to our lives? What can they offer us? \nTaking inspiration from the literary world—Henry David Thoreau\, Leo Tolstoy\, Katherine Basford’s Green Man\, Thomas Hardy\, William Shakespeare\, and others—Canton ponders the wondrous magic of nature and the threats its faces\, from human development to climate change\, implores us to act as responsible stewards to conserve what is precious\, and reminds us of the lessons we can learn from the world around us\, if only we slow down enough to listen. \nAbout James Canton\nDr. James Canton runs the Wild Writing MA at the University of Essex and is the author of Ancient Wonderings and Out of Essex: Re-Imagining a Literary Landscape\, which was inspired by his rural wandering in East Anglia. He was awarded his PhD by the University of Essex and reviews for the TLS\, Caught by the River\, and Earthlines. Canton is a regular on British television and radio and lectures frequently. He lives in Essex\, England.

SUMMARY:Irvin D. Yalom with Lori Gottlieb
DESCRIPTION:This event is online.\nHow can we understand life\, joy and love during the moment when they culminate in death and grief? \nInternationally acclaimed psychiatrist and author Irvin D. Yalom devoted his career to counseling those suffering from loss and anxiety. But never had he faced the need to counsel himself until his wife and lifelong partner\, the late esteemed historian and feminist author Marilyn D. Yalom\, was diagnosed with cancer. Together\, they chose to write about their shared experience during her final months\, creating an unparalleled gift that Kirkus calls “A profound love story with lessons for how to live and how to die.” \n\n\n\n\nTheir memoir A Matter of Death and Life provides insight into grief from a remarkable couple who spent a life of close devotion from their teenage years onward. It catalogues the most intimate and daunting challenges two loved ones can undergo while trying to care for one another: Marilyn\, to die a good death\, and Irv to live on without her. During a year wracked with complex grief\, their shared story is a beautiful work of writing that offers much needed guidance. \nThrough alternating stories of their last months together and Irv’s first months alone\, A Matter of Death and Life rings with a depth of support\, solace\, and meaning around the process of grief… and also offers a warm\, resonant tribute to life well-lived. \nIn an interview with Lori Gottlieb\, Dr. Irvin Yalom visits with Kepler’s Literary Foundation online on March 8th to share A Matter of Death and Life. These two warm\, witty writers will discuss what is a grippingly poignant account of not only grief\, but the experience of love that gives it meaning. \n  \nIRVIN D. YALOM\, emeritus professor of psychiatry at Stanford University\, is the author of internationally bestselling books including Love’s Executioner\, The Gift of Therapy\, Becoming Myself\, and When Nietzsche Wept. His impact in the field of psychiatry is profound\, with one training text alone over 700\,000 copies sold; but it is his lifelong passion for literature and fiction\, paired with the deep human understanding of his psychiatric work\, that makes Yalom’s writing distinctly beloved at Kepler’s. \n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLORI GOTTLIEB is psychotherapist and author of the bestselling Kepler’s Favorite Maybe You Should Talk to Someone\, now being adapted for television. In addition to clinical practice\, she writes The Atlantic’s weekly “Dear Therapist” column and is the co-host of the eponymous iHeart Radio podcast produced by Katie Couric. A member of the Advisory Council for Bring Change and one of the most-watched TED presenters of 2020\, Lori’s expertise has made her a sought-after guest on media like The Today Show\, Good Morning America\, CBS This Morning\, CNN\, and NPR’s Fresh Air. \nMARILYN YALOM (1932-2019) wrote many celebrated cultural histories and feminist works\, including Blood Sisters\, History of the Wife\, The Birth of the Chess Queen and (together with her son) The American Resting Place. This year marks the release of her posthumously published Innocent Witness: Childhood Memories of World War II. A professor of French at Stanford University and senior scholar at the Clayman Institute for Gender Research\, she received her PhD in comparative literature from Johns Hopkins and had a profound impact through both her academic contributions and teaching. Marilyn and Irv were married for sixty-five years. \n\n** Please consider joining with a book purchase or donation to support Kepler’s Literary Foundation programs. **

SUMMARY:Reuben Jonathan Miller in conversation with Terah Lawyer
DESCRIPTION:City Arts & Lectures presents: Reuben Jonathan Miller in conversation with Terah Lawyer\nCo-presented with Impact Justice \nMonday\, March 8\, 2021\n6:00pm Pacific Time\nKQED Broadcast: 03/21/2021\, 03/23/2021\, 03/24/2021\nTICKETS \n  \n\n\nThis event is a presented in partnership with Impact Justice \nReuben Jonathan Miller is a sociologist\, criminologist and a social worker who teaches at the University of Chicago in the School of Social Service Administration where he studies and writes about race\, democracy\, and the social life of the city. His book\, Halfway Home: Race\, Punishment\, and the Afterlife of Mass Incarceration\, shows that the American justice system was not created to rehabilitate\, and how parole is structured to keep classes of Americans impoverished\, unstable\, and disenfranchised long after they’ve paid their debt to society. Miller has been a member at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton New Jersey\, a fellow at the New America Foundation and the Rockefeller Foundation\, and a visiting scholar at the University of Texas at Austin and Dartmouth College. A native son of Chicago\, he lives with his wife and children on the city’s Southside. \nTerah Lawyer has been an advocate for incarcerated people for more than a decade as a peer health educator\, a certified drug and alcohol counselor\, a youth diversion specialist\, and now as program manager for the Homecoming Project\, an innovative re-entry housing program at Impact Justice. Ms. Lawyer is herself a formerly incarcerated person\, and that experience informs her commitment to improving the justice system. \nImpact Justice is a national innovation and research center advancing new ideas and solutions for justice reform. Impact Justice was founded in 2015 on an idea: to create an organization that would imagine\, innovate\, and accept absolutely nothing about the status quo of our current justice system. We know the problems: too many people locked up\, including far too many people of color; families broken up and broken by our justice system; and a culture that too often treats people based on fear\, oppression\, and bias. For us to build the future we need\, we must build the world we want today. Info at https://impactjustice.org/ \n\n\n

SUMMARY:CLA Presents: Laila Lalami
DESCRIPTION:What does it mean to be American? In this starkly illuminating and impassioned book\, Pulitzer Prize­­–finalist Laila Lalami recounts her unlikely journey from Moroccan immigrant to U.S. citizen\, using it as a starting point for her exploration of the rights\, liberties\, and protections that are traditionally associated with American citizenship. Tapping into history\, politics\, and literature\, she elucidates how accidents of birth—such as national origin\, race\, and gender—that once determined the boundaries of Americanness still cast their shadows today.\n\nLalami poignantly illustrates how white supremacy survives through adaptation and legislation\, with the result that a caste system is maintained that keeps the modern equivalent of white male landowners at the top of the social hierarchy. Conditional citizens\, she argues\, are all the people with whom America embraces with one arm and pushes away with the other.\n\nBrilliantly argued and deeply personal\, Conditional Citizens weaves together Lalami’s own experiences with explorations of the place of nonwhites in the broader American culture.\nLaila Lalami was born in Rabat and educated in Morocco\, Great Britain\, and the United States. She the author of four novels\, including ‘The Moor’s Account’\, which won the American Book Award and was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize\, and ‘The Other Americans’\, which was a Los Angeles Times bestseller and a finalist for the National Book Award. Her essays and criticism have appeared in The Nation\, Harper’s\, the Washington Post\, and the New York Times. She has received fellowships from the British Council\, the Fulbright Program\, and the Guggenheim Foundation and is currently a professor of creative writing at the University of California at Riverside. She lives in Los Angeles.

SUMMARY:Virtual Event: Rebecca Handler & Caroline Paul
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Tuesday\, March 9 at 6pm PT for the launch of Rebecca Handler’s debut novel\, Edie Richter is Not Alone\, with Caroline Paul on Zoom!\n\nZoom Login Info\nPlease click the link below to join the webinar:\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/84332843511\n\nPraise for Edie Richter is Not Alone\n\n“Oh how I love this book. I finished Edie Richter Is Not Alone in one sitting\, then reread it immediately. Hilariously heartbreakingly honest on every page\, Rebecca Handler’s novel is that rare thing: a perfect book.”\n—Andrew Sean Greer\, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Less\n\n“Rebecca Handler’s debut novel Edie Richter Is Not Alone features a witty protagonist in the midst of an emotional and physical journey to Western Australia. Handler’s writing is spare and sharp and brings to mind the work of Mary Robison and Lorrie Moore—it made me laugh with recognition and tear up with empathy. Reading this book will make you feel the way all good literature does: it will make you feel less alone.”\n—Vendela Vida\, author of The Diver’s Clothes Lie Empty\n\nAbout Edie Richter is Not Alone\n\nFunny\, acerbic Edie Richter is moving with her husband from San Francisco to Perth\, Australia. She leaves behind a sister and mother still mourning the recent death of her father. Before the move\, Edie and her husband were content\, if socially awkward―given her disinclination for small talk.\nIn Perth\, Edie finds herself in a remarkably isolated yet verdant corner of the world\, but Edie has a secret: she committed an unthinkable act that she can barely admit to herself. In some ways\, the landscape mirrors her own complicated inner life\, and rather than escaping her past\, Edie is increasingly forced to confront what she’s done. Everybody\, from the wildlife to her new neighbors\, is keen to engage\, and Edie does her best to start fresh. But her relationship with her husband is fraying\, and the beautiful memories of her father are heartbreaking\, and impossible to stop. Something\, in the end\, has to give.\nWritten in clean spare prose that is nevertheless brimming with the richness and wry humor of the protagonist’s observations and idiosyncrasies\, Edie Richter is Not Alone is Rebecca Handler’s debut novel. It is both deeply shocking and entirely quotidian: a story about a woman’s visceral confrontation with the fundamental meaning of humanity.

SUMMARY:Kelly Loy Gilbert and Anna-Marie McLemore
DESCRIPTION:Two much loved critically acclaimed authors. Two fabulous eagerly awaited new books. Join us as we launch Kelly Loy Gilbert’s new book When We Were Infinite and celebrate a week early for Anna-Marie McLemore’s new book The Mirror Season.  \n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKelly Loy Gilbert is the author of the William C. Morris Debut Award finalist Conviction and Stonewall Honor Book Picture Us in the Light. When We Were Infinite is a powerful\, achingly romantic drama about the secrets we keep\, from each other and from ourselves. \nAll Beth wants is for her tight-knit circle of friends—Grace Nakamura\, Brandon Lin\, Sunny Chen\, and Jason Tsou—to stay together. With her family splintered and her future a question mark\, these friends are all she has—even if she sometimes wonders if she truly fits in with them. Besides\, she’s certain she’ll never be able to tell Jason how she really feels about him\, so friendship will have to be enough. Then Beth witnesses a private act of violence in Jason’s home\, and the whole group is shaken. Beth and her friends make a pact to do whatever it takes to protect Jason\, no matter the sacrifice. But when even their fierce loyalty isn’t enough to stop Jason from making a life-altering choice\, Beth must decide how far she’s willing to go for him—and how much of herself she’s willing to give up. \n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAnna-Marie McLemore is the author of William C. Morris Debut Award Finalist The Weight of Feathers\, Stonewall Honor Book When the Moon Was Ours\, which was longlisted for the National Book Award\, Wild Beauty \, Blanca & Roja\, and Dark and Deepest Red. The Mirror Season is “An unforgettable story of trauma and healing\, told in achingly beautiful prose with great tenderness and care.” ―Karen M. McManus\, #1 New York Times-bestselling author of One of Us Is Lying \nWhen two teens discover that they were both sexually assaulted at the same party\, they develop a cautious friendship through her family’s possibly-magical pastelería\, his secret forest of otherworldly trees\, and the swallows returning to their hometown. \nThis is sure to be a fantastic and thought provoking conversation. \nA post-event temporary access recording of the webinar will be shared with all guests who register. Please consider joining with a book to support programs like this one.

SUMMARY:“What it Means to Love America”: Dan Rather on What Unites Us: The Graphic Novel
DESCRIPTION:Limited copies of What Unites Us: The Graphic Novel with signed bookplate available with your ticket purchase!\nInformation and “the news” have become contested territories\, with more people than ever\, especially the young\, feeling that they just can’t trust what they read\, hear and watch. That’s a dangerous situation in the current moment of cultural and political reckoning when Americans need to work together. Times like these are when we’re especially grateful for broadcast journalist Dan Rather. \nDan Rather is the voice America trusts (as well as one of the most surprising Twitter stars of the Trump era). He has been our measured guide and witness to the most significant events of the past four decades\, from the assassination of JFK to the civil rights movement to the Vietnam War. Having covered every President since Eisenhower\, for the past four years he’s been a touchstone of decency and common sense during the most consequential time in recent political history. Now\, as our sorely tested democracy paves a new path forward\, Rather offers a stunning vision for true patriotism\, a “tonic for disaffected millennials and conservative grandpas alike” (People). With a brand-new graphic novel edition of the New York Times bestseller What Unites Us\, his “almost unbearably poignant” (BookPage) essay collection on what it means to be an American\, he reaches beyond generational and ideological divides\, giving us hope and courage. \nIn this live\, virtual conversation between Dan and Priya Clemens\, host of KQED Newsroom\, you’ll have the chance to ask one of our most revered living legends your questions about this extraordinary moment we find ourselves in\, and where we go from here. At the dawn of a new administration\, as hope begins to creep back in\, there’s no better time—and no better person—to guide us. \nEach ticket includes private access to the event recording for 10 days following the live event. \nThis event makes a great gift! You can download a lovely card to forward to your recipient—we’ll take care of the rest\, including shipping books!
