Because I live in the Pacific Northwest, the end of January can feel like the farthest point from carefree summer days. The days are getting longer but not fast enough. I'm not warm enough until I'm wearing three sweaters, a blanket and a cat. These days make it easy to forget the discomforts of August--sweltering heat, stifling humidity, sunburns, dehydration--so I find myself longing for the rising peaks of the thermometer's mercury.
The Los Angeles LGBT Center's Lily Tomlin/Jane Wagner Cultural Arts Center proudly welcomes author Cynthia Bond for a free, one-night appearance.
Last week, more than 500 booksellers, along with publishers and authors, converged on Seattle for the American Booksellers Association's ninth annual Winter Institute--three days of seminars, socializing and shoptalk (even more energizing than Seattle's collective euphoria over the Seahawks). Adding to the excitement was the abundance of authors, numbering more than 100. Many of them were on hand Thursday evening to sign books, something I'd grown blasé about--until I walked into the hotel ballroom. I gasped, grabbed the nearest arm and exclaimed, 'Look! It's Cynthia Bond!' I sidled over to her table as casually as I could, but then started to gush like a tween at a One Direction concert. Her novel Ruby (to be published by Hogarth in April), the 'unforgettable story of a man determined to protect the woman he loves from the town desperate to destroy her,' is one of the most stunning books I've read this year--order it now in advance from your indie bookstore.
Impressive. Beautifully lyrical. Stunning. Strange and wonderful concoction. Unconventional. Clever. Whether describing one of her avant-garde works or simply summing up her unique movement style, words and phrases like these flow throughout the reviews of choreographer Helen Pickett.
