SUMMARY:Christopher Woods presents Gardenlust: A Botanical Tour of the World's Best New Gardens
DESCRIPTION:Christopher Woods presents Gardenlust: A Botanical Tour of the World’s Best New Gardens\, a sumptuously illustrated survey and the perfect armchair travel guide to 50 of the most innovative modern gardens from around the world. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn Gardenlust\, adventurous biophiliac Christopher Woods takes readers on a worldwide tour that goes beyond the palace grounds of centuries past to transport you to places of botanical wonder. From a garden defined by shape and light in Marrakech to an urban forest in Tokyo\, with each stop of this tour Woods curates a collection of contemporary gardens that inspire wanderlust not just for their exotic locations but for the people\, plants\, and stories that give these spaces life.\n\n\n\n\n\nWoods has been immersed in the worlds of horticulture\, design\, and garden-making for over 30 years. He honed his eye for innovative design while developing the Pennsylvania estate Chanticleer into one of the most revered and inspiring public gardens in the world. In the Introduction he writes\, “Several themes run through the stories that follow\, threads that make an interwoven pattern. No garden touches on just one—most have all of them.” With five criteria as his compass points—Beauty\, Nature\, People and Plants\, Nativity\, and Urbanization—Woods shows us a global vision for modern garden excellence. \nTo pair with these lust-worthy gardens\, the book itself is a work of art. The artful photographs illuminate the magnificence of some of today’s biggest public gardens\, like China’s Xi’an Expo Park\, while capturing even the tiniest details of the pendulous bleeding hearts growing in Carrie Preston’s home garden in the Netherlands. \nGardens beyond one’s wildest dreams are out there\, beckoning to be found. Gardenlust grants an all-access pass to that wild world\, where artists’ chosen medium are plants and the art is an absolutely immersive experience. A word of warning—once caught\, this case of botanical wanderlust may take you on an international adventure of epic proportions. Let Gardenlust be your guide. \n\n\n\n\n“A beautiful and relaxing tour through some of the loveliest gardens in the world! The author’s original images provide a fine taste of their gorgeous plants and the creativity used in organizing them.”–Peter H. Raven\, President Emeritus at Missouri Botanical Garden \nTo reserve your seat\, please purchase a copy of Gardenlust in advance by speaking to a bookseller or via our website. \n\n\n\n\nChristopher Woods began his gardening life at the Royal Botanical Gardens\, Kew. He was director and chief designer of Chanticleer and has served as vice president for horticulture at the Santa Barbara Botanical Garden; director of the Van Dusen Botanical Garden in Vancouver\, Canada; executive director of the Mendocino Coast Botanical Garden; and director of both the Pennsylvania Horticultural Society and Meadowbrook Farm. He lives in California.

SUMMARY:Juan Gabriel Vasquez
DESCRIPTION:Juan Gabriel Vasquez\n\n\n\n\nreads from The Shape of the Ruins\, his highly anticipated\, deeply personal masterpiece that is being heralded as the most ambitious novel of his career. \n“A highly sophisticated\, fast-moving political thriller set in Colombia and an excellent read.”–Alan Furst \n“One of the great novels of recent years.”–Mario Vargas Llosa \nTo reserve your seat\, purchase a copy of The Shape of the Ruins by speaking with a bookseller or ordering from our website. \n\n\n\n\n\nTuesday\, October 2\, 2018 – 7:30pm\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Shape of the Ruins is a masterly story of conspiracy\, political obsession\, and literary investigation. When a man is arrested at a museum for attempting to steal the bullet-ridden suit of a murdered Colombian politician\, few notice. But soon this thwarted theft takes on greater meaning as it becomes a thread in a widening web of popular fixations with conspiracy theories\, assassinations\, and historical secrets; and it haunts those who feel that only they know the real truth behind these killings. \nThis novel explores the darkest moments of a country’s past and brings to life the ways in which past violence shapes our present lives. A compulsive read\, beautiful and profound\, eerily relevant to our times and deeply personal\, The Shape of the Ruins is a tour-de-force story by a master at uncovering the incisive wounds of our memories. \nJuan Gabriel Vásquez’s previous books include the International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award winner and national bestseller\, The Sound of Things Falling\, as well as the award-winning Reputations\, The Informers\, The Secret History of Costaguana\, and the story collection\, Lovers on All Saints’ Day. Vásquez’s novels have been published in twenty-eight languages worldwide. After sixteen years in France\, Belgium\, and Spain\, he now lives in Bogotá. \n

SUMMARY:Miriam Pawel in Conversation with T.J. Stiles discussing The Browns of California
DESCRIPTION:Miriam Pawel in Conversation with T.J. Stiles\ndiscussing The Browns of California: The Family Dynasty That Transformed a State and Shaped a Nation. \n“A remarkable book–a generational biography of a political dynasty\, ranging from the California Gold Rush to the presidency of Donald Trump. She recounts the pivotal governorship of Pat Brown and the even more significant career of his son Jerry with assured prose and a keen sense of historical context. This is the engrossing saga of complicated family at the center of American political life for the last sixty years.”–T.J. Stiles\, Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Custer’s Trials and The First Tycoon. \nTo reserve your seat\, please purchase a copy of The Browns of California by speaking to a bookseller or via our website. \nEven in the land of reinvention\, the story is exceptional: Pat Brown\, the beloved father who presided over California during an era of unmatched expansion; Jerry Brown\, the cerebral son who became the youngest governor in modern times–and then returned three decades later as the oldest. \nIn The Browns of California\, journalist and scholar Miriam Pawel weaves a narrative history that spans four generations\, from August Schuckman\, the Prussian immigrant who crossed the Plains in 1852 and settled on a northern California ranch\, to his great-grandson Jerry Brown\, who reclaimed the family homestead one hundred forty years later. Through the prism of their lives\, we gain an essential understanding of California and an appreciation of its importance. \nThe magisterial story is enhanced by dozens of striking photos\, many published for the first time. This book gives new insights to those steeped in California history\, offers a corrective for those who confuse stereotypes and legend for fact\, and opens new vistas for readers familiar with only the sketchiest outlines of a place habitually viewed from afar with a mix of envy and awe\, disdain\, and fascination. \nMiriam Pawel is the author of The Crusades of Cesar Chavez: A Biography\, a National Book Critics Circle Award finalist and winner of the California Book Award\, and The Union of Their Dreams—Power\, Hope and Struggle in Cesar Chavez’s Farm Worker Movement. She is a Pulitzer-Prize winning editor and reporter who spent twenty-five years at Newsday and the Los Angeles Times. She lives in Southern California. \nT.J. Stiles is the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Custer’s Trials: A Life on the Frontier of a New America\, The First Tycoon: The Epic Life of Cornelius Vanderbilt\, and Jesse James: Last Rebel of the Civil War.

SUMMARY:NT Live 2018 Fall Season: King Lear
DESCRIPTION:Oct 9\, 11\, 16 & 18 7pm\n\nTo Purchase Tickets Click HERE \nBy William Shakespeare\nStarring Ian McKellen \n★★★★★ “Ian McKellen reigns supreme in this triumphant production.” Daily Telegraph \nBroadcast live from London’s West End\, see Ian McKellen’s “extraordinarily moving portrayal” (Independent) of King Lear at Rialto Cinemas. \nChichester Festival Theatre’s production received five-star reviews for its sell-out run\, and transfers to the West End for a limited season. Jonathan Munby directs this “nuanced and powerful” (The Times) contemporary retelling of Shakespeare’s tender\, violent\, moving and shocking play. \nConsidered by many to be the greatest tragedy ever written\, King Lear sees two ageing fathers – one a King\, one his courtier – reject the children who truly love them. Their blindness unleashes a tornado of pitiless ambition and treachery\, as family and state are plunged into a violent power struggle with bitter ends.

SUMMARY:Fox Butterfield presents In My Father's House
DESCRIPTION:Fox Butterfield presents In My Father’s House: A New View of How Crime Runs in the Family\, a pathbreaking examination of our huge crime and incarceration problem that looks at the influence of the family–specifically one Oregon family with a generations-long legacy of lawlessness.\n\n\n\n\n“A spellbinding book\, brilliant and bone-chilling. In My Father’s House will change the way we look at what makes a criminal.”–Linda Fairstein\, author of Deadfall \nTo reserve your seat\, please purchase a copy of In My Father’s House by speaking to a bookseller or ordering on our website. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe United States currently holds the distinction of housing nearly one-quarter of the world’s prison population. But our reliance on mass incarceration\, Butterfield argues\, misses the intractable reality: As few as 5 percent of families account for half of all crime\, and only 10 percent account for two-thirds. In introducing us to the Bogle family\, the author invites us to understand crime in this eye-opening new light. He chronicles the malignant legacy of criminality passed from parents to children\, grandchildren\, and even great-grandchildren. Examining the long history of the Bogles\, a white family\, Butterfield offers a revelatory look at criminality that forces us to disentangle race from our ideas about crime and\, in doing so\, strikes at the heart of our deepest stereotypes. And he makes clear how these new insights are leading to fundamentally different efforts at reform. With his empathic insight and profound knowledge of criminology\, Butterfield offers us both the indelible tale of one family’s transgressions and tribulations\, and an entirely new way to understand crime in America.\n\n\nFox Butterfield is the author of China: Alive in the Bitter Sea\, which won the National Book Award\, and All God’s Children: The Bosket Family and the American Tradition of Violence. He was a member of the New York Times reporting team that won the Pulitzer Prize for its publication of the Pentagon Papers\, and served as a bureau chief for the newspaper in Boston\, Saigon\, Tokyo\, Hong Kong\, and Beijing–where he opened the Times bureau in 1979. Most recently he was a national correspondent for the Times\, covering crime and violence. He lives in Portland\, Oregon.

SUMMARY:Leif Enger celebrating the publication of his wonderful new novel\, Virgil Wander
DESCRIPTION:Leif Enger OFFSITE @ Rialto Cinemas Elmwood\n\n\n\n\ncelebrating the publication of his wonderful new novel\, Virgil Wander\, much of which takes place in and around a beloved old movie theater not unlike our own here in the Elmwood. There will be a special screening of Cinema Paradiso in connection with the reading and signing. Buy your tickets\, with or without book\, through Eventbrite: https://leifengermrsds.eventbrite.com or in the store. We will have additional copies of Virgil Wander and Peace Like a River for sale at the event. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nMidwestern movie house owner Virgil Wander is “cruising along at medium altitude” when his car flies off the road into icy Lake Superior. Virgil survives but his language and memory are altered and he emerges into a world no longer familiar to him. Awakening in this new life\, Virgil begins to piece together his personal history and the lore of his broken town\, with the help of a cast of affable and curious locals–from Rune\, a twinkling\, pipe-smoking\, kite-flying stranger investigating the mystery of his disappeared son; to Nadine\, the reserved\, enchanting wife of the vanished man\, to Tom\, a journalist and Virgil’s oldest friend; and various members of the Pea family who must confront tragedies of their own. Into this community returns a shimmering prodigal son who may hold the key to reviving their town. \nWith intelligent humor and captivating whimsy\, Leif Enger conjures a remarkable portrait of a region and its residents\, who\, for reasons of choice or circumstance\, never made it out of their defunct industrial district. Carried aloft by quotidian pleasures including movies\, fishing\, necking in parked cars\, playing baseball and falling in love\, Virgil Wander is a swift\, full journey into the heart and heartache of an often overlooked American Upper Midwest by a “formidably gifted” (Chicago Tribune) master storyteller. \nLeif Enger was raised in Osakis\, Minnesota\, and worked as a reporter and producer for Minnesota Public Radio before writing his bestselling debut novel Peace Like a River\, which won the Independent Publisher Book Award and was one of the Los Angeles Times and Time Magazine’s Best Books of the Year. His second novel\, So Brave\, Young\, and Handsome\, was also a national bestseller\, and a Midwest Booksellers’ Choice Award Honor Book for Fiction. He and his wife Robin live in Minnesota.

SUMMARY:Roshi Joan Halifax OFFSITE discusses Standing at the Edge: Finding Freedom Where Fear and Courage Meet
DESCRIPTION:Roshi Joan Halifax OFFSITE discusses Standing at the Edge: Finding Freedom Where Fear and Courage Meet\, with Gaetano Maida\, sponsored by KPFA\, St. John’s Presbyterian Church\, and Mindful Schools.\n\n\n\n\nAdvance tickets: $12 : brownpapertickets.com :: T: 800-838-3006 Books Inc/Berkeley\, Pegasus (3 sites)\, Moe’s\, Walden Pond Bookstore\, Mrs. Dalloway’s. East Bay Books\, $15 door\, Wheelchair Access \n\n\n\n\n\n\nStanding at the Edge is an evocative examination of how we can respond to suffering\, live our fullest lives\, and remain open to the full spectrum of our human experience. \nJoan Halifax has enriched thousands of lives around the world through her work as a humanitarian\, a social activist\, an anthropologist\, and as a Buddhist teacher. Over many decades\, she has also collaborated with neuroscientists\, clinicians\, and psychologists to understand how contemplative practice can be a vehicle for social transformation. Through her unusual background\, she developed an understanding of how our greatest challenges can become the most valuable source of our wisdom–and how we can transform our experience of suffering into the power of compassion for the benefit of others. \nRecounting the experiences of caregivers\, activists\, humanitarians\, politicians\, parents\, and teachers\, incorporating the wisdom of Zen traditions and mindfulness practices\, and rooted in Halifax’s groundbreaking research on compassion\, Standing at the Edge is destined to become a contemporary classic. A powerful guide on how to find the freedom we seek for others and ourselves\, it is a book that will serve us all. \nRoshi Joan Halifax\, Ph.D.\, is a Buddhist teacher\, Zen priest and anthropologist. She is Founder\, Abbot\, and Head Teacher of Upaya Institute and Zen Center in Santa Fe\, New Mexico. She was a Distinguished Visiting Scholar at the Library of Congress and is currently the founder of Upaya Prison Project and the Nomads Clinic in Nepal. \nGaetano Kazuo Maida is the founder and executive director of Buddhist Film Foundation\, which has produced its International Buddhist Film \nFestival in ten cities on three continents. A photographer and filmmaker\, his credits include: producer/director of Peace Is Every Step—The Life and Work of Thich Nhat Hanh.

SUMMARY:EXHIBITION On Screen 2018/19 Season: Degas - Passion for Perfection
DESCRIPTION:Wed\, Nov 7 & Wed\, Dec 12\n\nPick Six and Save!\nPick Ten and Save More! \nTo Purchase Tickets Click HERE \nEXHIBITION ON SCREEN journeys from the streets of Paris to the heart of a superb exhibition at the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge\, whose extensive collection of Degas’ works is the most representative in Britain. With exclusive access to view rare and diverse works\, this film tells a fascinating story of Degas’ pursuit for perfection through both experimentation with new techniques and lessons learnt from studying the past masters. \nSometimes frustrated by his own failings\, Degas was consumed by obsessive principles and failing eye sight but his determination to capture everyday life was evident in every mark he made. Never fully satisfied\, many of Degas’ drawings and sculptures were kept in private during his lifetime but\, now through close examination\, they can be seen as some of the most beautifully detailed and expressive works in the modern era. Using written accounts by friends and commentators\, and the narration of letters written by Degas himself\, this film reveals a more complex truth behind one of the most influential French artists of the late 19th-century and serves as an exploration of the complex workings of Degas’ artistic mind. \n“Art is not a matter of what you see\, but what you make other people see.” Edgar Degas

SUMMARY:Keeping Values & Sharing Stories @Claremont
DESCRIPTION:Native People lived in California for thousands of years. They had no books\, and indeed no written language. Yet complex stories were passed down from one generation to the next\, skills were transmitted without instruction manuals\, children were taught what they needed to know. The retention and transmission of knowledge\, beliefs\, and values are essential to the survival of a culture\, too important to be left to chance. Malcolm Margolin will tell stories and give examples of how people kept knowledge and transmitted values in a world without books or schools.
