SUMMARY:Thad Carhart reads from his delightful memoir\, Finding Fontainebleau: An American Boy in France
DESCRIPTION:Thad Carhart reads from his delightful memoir\, Finding Fontainebleau: An American Boy in France\, just out in paperback. \n\n\n\n\n“While bringing alive this redolent Gallic chapter of his boyhood (baguettes from the boulangerie; inkwells and laborious handwriting exercises at school)\, Mr. Carhart also resurrects the mood and mores of a particular window in time: the 1950s of Ike and Elvis’s America\, and postwar France. . . . Like the castle\, his memoir imaginatively and smoothly integrates multiple influences\, styles and whims.”–The New York Times \n\n\n\n\n\nThursday\, June 8\, 2017 – 7:30pm\n\n\n\n\n\nFor a young American boy in the 1950s\, Fontainebleau was a sight both strange and majestic\, home to a continual series of adventures: a different language to learn\, weekend visits to nearby Paris\, family road trips to Spain and Italy. Then there was the chateau itself: a sprawling palace once the residence of kings\, its grounds the perfect place to play hide-and-seek. The curiosities of the small town and the time with his family as expats left such an impression on him that thirty years later Carhart returned to France with his wife to raise their two children. Touring Fontainebleau again as an adult\, he began to appreciate its influence on French style\, taste\, art\, and architecture. Each trip to Fontainebleau introduces him to entirely new aspects of the chateau’s history\, enriching his memories and leading him to Patrick Ponsot\, the head of the chateau’s restoration\, who becomes Carhart’s guide to the hidden Fontainebleau. \nWhat emerges is an intimate chronicle of a time and place few have experienced. In warm\, precise prose\, Carhart reconstructs the wonders of his childhood as an American in postwar France\, attending French schools with his brothers and sisters. His firsthand account brings to life nothing less than France in the 1950s\, from the parks and museums of Paris to the rigors of French schooling to the vast chateau of Fontainebleau and its village\, built\, piece by piece\, over many centuries. Finding Fontainebleau is for those captivated by the French way of life\, for armchair travelers\, and for anyone who has ever fallen in love with a place they want to visit over and over again. \nThe son of an air force officer\, Thad Carhart grew up in a variety of places\, including Washington\, D.C.; Fontainebleau\, France; Minneapolis; Amherst\, Massachusetts; and Tokyo. After graduating from Yale\, he worked for the State Department as an interpreter. He is also the author of The Piano Shop on the Left Bank and Across the Endless River\, a historical novel. He lives in Paris.

SUMMARY:Rosalind Rosenberg reads from Jane Crow: The Life of Pauli Murray\,
DESCRIPTION:Rosalind Rosenberg reads from Jane Crow: The Life of Pauli Murray\, “a fascinating look at the incredible life of Pauli Murray\, a mixed-race\, transgender scholar\, lawyer\, activist\, priest\, and trailblazer who played a pivotal role in the civil rights and women’s movements of the 20th century.”– The Advocate \n\n\n\nThursday\, June 1\, 2017 – 7:30pm\n\n\n\n\n\nJane Crow tells the incredible story of Pauli Murray\, a lawyer\, activist\, and priest. Murray spent her life fighting for women’s and civil rights\, all while grappling with gender identity at a time when gender dysphoria was unrecognized. Though Murray is a relatively unknown figure today\, her stunning list of accomplishments included providing legal scholarship in the landmark Brown v. Board of Education case\, assisting Ruth Bader Ginsburg in persuading the Supreme Court that the Fourteenth Amendment should apply to protecting both women and other minority groups from discrimination\, and becoming the first black woman ordained as a priest by the Episcopal Church. \nThe New Yorker  recently published a big piece on Murray and the book: “Historical figures aren’t human flotsam\, swirling into public awareness at random intervals. Instead\, they are almost always borne back to us on the current of our own times. In Murray’s case\, it’s not simply that her public struggles on behalf of women\, minorities\, and the working class suddenly seem more relevant than ever. It’s that her private struggles—documented for the first time in all their fullness by Rosenberg—have recently become our public ones.” \nRosalind Rosenberg is Professor of History Emerita at Barnard College\, Columbia University. She is the author of Divided Lives: American Women in the Twentieth Century\, Changing the Subject: How the Women of Columbia Shaped the Way We Think About Sex and Politics\, and Beyond Separate Spheres: Intellectual Roots of Modern Feminism.

SUMMARY:Cornelia Nixon reads from her new novel\, The Use of Fame
DESCRIPTION:Cornelia Nixon reads from her new novel\, The Use of Fame. \n\n\n“Rarely has a marriage so come alive in a work of fiction.

SUMMARY:The Royal Ballet: The Dream/Symphonic Variations/Marguerite and Armand
DESCRIPTION:The Royal Ballet: The Dream/Symphonic Variations/Marguerite and Armand – Wed\, May 24 at 1 & 7pm \nThe Royal Ballet brings its celebrations of 70 years at the Royal Opera House to a close with a mixed programme of works by its Founder Choreographer Frederick Ashton. \nThis gorgeous mixed programme demonstrates the great creative vision of Frederick Ashton\, Founder Choreographer of The Royal Ballet. The Dream is Ashton’s adaptation of Shakespeare’s riotous comedy in which a forest sprite plays havoc\, armed with a love potion. Symphonic Variations was Ashton’s first work after World War II\, and one of the Company’s first to be performed on the huge main stage of the Royal Opera House\, in 1946. With six dancers performing a series of quartets\, duets\, sextets and solos to Franck’s brooding Variations symphoniques\, this seminal masterpiece celebrates the pure beauty of movement. Marguerite and Armand is Ashton’s beautiful and emotional retelling of a well-known story\, familiar to us through Verdi’s opera La traviata. Ashton famously created this poignant ballet on Margot Fonteyn and Rudolf Nureyev in 1963. \n

SUMMARY:Allegiance
DESCRIPTION:Inspired by the true life experience of its star George Takei\, Allegiance follows one family’s extraordinary journey in this untold American story. \nAllegiance illuminates one of American history’s lesser known chapters as it tells the story of Sam Kimura (George Takei\, Star Trek\, “Heroes”)\, transported back nearly six decades to when his younger self (Telly Leung\, Godspell\, “Glee”) and his sister Kei (Tony Award-winner Lea Salonga\, Miss Saigon\, Mulan) fought to stay connected to their heritage\, their family and themselves after Japanese Americans were wrongfully imprisoned during World War II.

SUMMARY:The Royal Ballet: Jewels
DESCRIPTION:George Balanchine’s timeless evocation of the brilliance and sparkle of emeralds\, rubies and diamonds. \nGeorge Balanchine’s evocation of the sparkle of emeralds\, rubies and diamonds is a brilliant ballet classic. The French Romantic music of Faure provides the impetus for the subtlety and lyricism of ‘Emeralds’\, while the fire of ‘Rubies’ comes from Stravinsky and the jazz-age energy of New York. Grandeur and elegance complete the ballet with the splendour of Imperial Russia and the peerless music of Tchaikovsky in ‘Diamonds’. \nJewels is a masterclass in the many luminous facets of classical ballet and indeed of The Royal Ballet itself: the virtuoso choreography of Balanchine\, the intensity of the soloists and the precision of the entire Company.

SUMMARY:Jacqueline Winspear  reads from her latest Maisie Dobbs adventure\, In This Grave Hour.
DESCRIPTION:Jacqueline Winspear reads from her latest Maisie Dobbs adventure\, In This Grave Hour. \n\n\n\n\n“A female investigator every bit as brainy and battle-hardened as Lisbeth Salander.”–Maureen Corrigan\, NPR’s Fresh Air \n\n\n\n\n\n\nSunday September 3rd 1939. At the moment Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain broadcasts to the nation Britain’s declaration of war with Germany\, a senior Secret Service agent breaks into Maisie Dobbs’ flat to await her return. Dr. Francesca Thomas has an urgent assignment for Maisie: to find the killer of a man who escaped occupied Belgium as a boy\, some twenty-three years earlier during the Great War. \nIn a London shadowed by barrage balloons\, bomb shelters and the threat of invasion\, within days another former Belgian refugee is found murdered. And as Maisie delves deeper into the killings of the dispossessed from the “last war\,” a new kind of refugee — an evacuee from London — appears in Maisie’s life. The little girl billeted at Maisie’s home in Kent does not\, or cannot\, speak\, and the authorities do not know who the child belongs to or who might have put her on the “Operation Pied Piper” evacuee train. They know only that her name is Anna. \nAs Maisie’s search for the killer escalates\, the country braces for what is to come. Britain is approaching its gravest hour — and Maisie could be nearing a crossroads of her own. \nJacqueline Winspear is the author of the bestselling Maisie Dobbs series\, which includes Journey to Munich\, A Dangerous Place\, Leaving Everything Most Loved\, Elegy for Eddie\, and eight other novels. Her standalone novel\, The Care and Management of Lies\, was also a bestseller and a Dayton Literary Peace Prize finalist. Originally from the United Kingdom\, she now lives in California.

SUMMARY:
DESCRIPTION:Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter\, The Woman in Black)\, Joshua McGuire (The Hour) and David Haig (Four Weddings and a Funeral\, The Witness for the Prosecution) star in Tom Stoppard’s brilliantly funny situation comedy\, captured live from The Old Vic theatre in London. \nAgainst the backdrop of Hamlet\, two hapless minor characters\, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern\, take centre stage. As the young double act stumble their way in and out of the action of Shakespeare’s iconic drama\, they become increasingly out of their depth as their version of the story unfolds. \nDavid Leveaux’s new production marks the 50th anniversary of the play that made a young Tom Stoppard’s name an overnight sensation.

SUMMARY:Exhibition On Screen: The Artist's Garden: American Impressionism
DESCRIPTION:“An artist’s interest in gardening is to produce pictures without brushes.” Anna Lea Merritt \n\nFollowing the smash hit Painting the Modern Garden: movement followed its own path which over a thirty-year Monet to Matisse from Season 3 comes a new film based on the hugely popular exhibition ‘The Artist’s Garden: American Impressionism and the Garden Movement\, 1887–1920’ from the Florence Griswold Museum in Connecticut\, widely considered a home of American Impressionism. \nTaking its lead from French artists like Renoir and Monet\, the American impressionist period reveals as much about America as a nation as it does about its art as a creative power-house. It’s a story closely tied to a love of gardens and a desire to preserve nature in a rapidly urbanizing nation. Traveling to studios\, gardens and famous locations throughout the United States\, UK and France\, this mesmerizing film is a feast for the eyes.

DESCRIPTION:Joan Frank reads from her new novel\, All the News I Need\, winner of the Juniper Prize for Fiction admiistered by UMass Press. \n\n\n\n\n“A deep dive into the heart of friendship\, of memory and regret\, of aging and loss… redemptive and wholly satisfying surprises…Joan Frank has gifted us with two unforgettable characters in a novel filled to bursting with hard truths and shimmering beauty.”—Bob Wake\, Cambridge Review \n\n\n\n\n\nWednesday\, April 19\, 2017 – 7:30pm\n\n\n\n\n\nA story of love and sex and friendship\, of art and travel—and of those small changes\, within our reach\, that may help us save ourselves—somewhere toward the end. \n“This wholly original novel asks and answers the most urgent of all questions: how are we to live?

SUMMARY:The Royal Opera: Madama Butterfly
DESCRIPTION:Antonio Pappano conducts an impressive cast led by Ermonela Jaho in Puccini’s deeply poignant opera. \nPuccini’s Madama Butterfly is one of the most popular of all operas\, with ravishing music and a heartbreaking story of a loving geisha deserted by a callous American husband. Much-loved soprano Ermonela Jaho sings the title role for the first time at Covent Garden\, in Moshe Leiser and Patrice Caurier’s stunningly beautiful production. \nThe exotic imagery of the Nagasaki setting is drawn from 19th-century Western artists’ romanticized views of Japan. Puccini’s music brings alive the birdsong of the morning\, the ritual of a wedding and the seduction by naval officer B.F. Pinkerton (sung by exciting young tenor Marcelo Puente) of his young\, innocent bride. Well known moments include the impassioned aria ‘Un bel di’ (One fine day) as the abandoned Cio-Cio-San clings vainly to her dreams. \nRoyal Opera Music Director Antonio Pappano\, acclaimed for his interpretations of Italian opera\, conducts this intense and gripping journey from light and excitement to darkness and self-sacrifice.

SUMMARY:Edie Meidav discussing Kingdom of the Young
DESCRIPTION:Edie Meidav in Conversation with Larry Bensky discussing Meidav’s story collection\, Kingdom of the Young. \n\n\n\n\n“Ambitious\, original\, deliciously philosophical. Kingdom of the Young invites comparison to the cronicas of Clarice Lispector and the fabulas of Italo Calvino.”–Carolyn Cooke\, author of Daughters of the Revolution \n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe dynamic characters in Kingdom of the Young are searching: for adventure\, work\, love\, absolution\, better chances elsewhere. In a symphonic stream of consciousness\, a fanatical child army loses faith in its commander as he ages unforgivably into his thirties. A woman possessed with wanderlust and a small inheritance seeks love among the cave-dwelling Roma in Granada. Traumatized war veterans run local rackets; smarmy bureaucrats rise through the ranks of repressive regimes; civilians attempt to escape the stranglehold of life under dictatorships. From the honeycombed caves outside the Alhambra to the streets of Havana\, from hospital wards to quinceanera parties\, these stories–along with the collection’s illuminating nonfiction coda–testify to Meidav’s vast imaginative range. \nEdie Meidav is the author of three novels–The Far Field\, Crawl Space\, and Lola\, California. Her honors include a Lannan Literary Award\, the Kafka Award for Best Novel by an American Woman\, the Bard Fiction Prize\, a Whiting Award\, and a Howard Fellowship. She teaches at the UMass MFA program and lives in Amherst. \nLarry Bensky is a Berkeley journalist\, radio host\, political activist\, educator\, and Proust scholar
