SUMMARY:Meet the Author - James L. Peters
DESCRIPTION:Meet author James L. Peters and if you ask he’ll read a bit of his book newest book for you. He’ll have all of his books for sale and signing. \n\nThe Dancer and the Swan comes out August 1.\nDeborah Deneaux is dying…\n\n\n​…but hospice volunteer Pauline Swanson won’t let DeeDee’s story die with her.  \nWhat drove DeeDee from her beloved 1960’s New Orleans Creole neighborhood to begin anew in turbulent 1970s San Francisco? What became of her brother after he joined the Black Panthers? How did she end up a single mother in Chicago and retire as a successful business owner?  \nAnd most of all—why is her relationship with her son\, Raymond\, so painfully broken?  \nAs Pauline pieces together DeeDee’s remarkable life\, she’s forced to confront her own. A recovering alcoholic haunted by childhood trauma\, Pauline finds strength in DeeDee’s resilience—strength she’ll need when her own past resurfaces and she’s forced to face what has haunted her dreams.

SUMMARY:Mother Hubble’s Cupboard – Poetry Reading
DESCRIPTION:Join author Sandra Lindow as she reads from her latest book of poetry. She’ll have books for sale and signing after the reading. \nHer latest: \nMother Hubble’s Cupboard and Other Poems About Inner and Outer Space \n… From macrocosm to microcosm\, even the multiverse\, there are no utopias here. However\, this universe of poems is not without puns\, pie and beer\, together and separately. A bad choice of distraction if you’re hungry\, but worth two utopias in the bush. This collection swings from the gritty to the playful\, sometimes considering physics\, and sometimes using physics to explore humanity\, all the while playing fast and loose with words\, as good poetry should.\n—DAVID KOPASKA-MERKEL\, author of Unwelcome Guests \nIn person or via Zoom.
