NOVEMBER 20, FRIDAY, 7:30 PM

BARBARA KINGSOLVER at Bainbridge High School Gym!
THE LACUNA

Don’t miss this exceptional opportunity to welcome to first-time Bainbridge visitor Barbara Kingsolver! West Sound Reads—the alliance between independent bookstores in the Puget Sound area and the Kitsap Regional Library—brings the beloved author of Animal, Vegetable, Miracle to Bainbridge High School for a very special appearance on behalf of her new novel, seven years in the making.

Well worth the wait for fans of her earlier fiction including Animal Dreams and The Poisonwood Bible, The Lacuna is set in the U.S. and Mexico during the 1930s, 40s and 50s, and includes real-life historical figures including Frida Kahlo, Diego Rivera, and Leon Trotsky.

Purchase a copy The Lacuna from Eagle Harbor Book Co. or Liberty Bay Books to reserve two seats for this fabulous free event.

Please note the special time and venue for this event.

Doors will open at 6:30pm. There will be priority seating in folding chairs on the floor for those who purchased their books in advance. An usher will take their ticket and escort them to the section. If they prefer to sit in the bleachers they are welcome to.

Reminder: tickets say be in your seat by 7. At 7:10 we will open up unfilled seats in reserved area to the general public.

women's fiction: SUSAN WIGGS & SHEILA ROBERTS presents...

Start: Thu, 11/19/2009 - 7:30pm

NOVEMBER 19, THURSDAY, 7:30PM

SUSAN WIGGS & SHEILA ROBERTS
Join us for a little pre-holiday merriment with Wiggs and Roberts, delightful writers of women's fiction. In Wiggs' LAKESHORE CHRISTMAS, the prim librarian is finally getting her chance to direct Avalons annual holiday pageant, and she's determined to make it truly spectacular. Amid the holiday bustle of crackling fires, caroling singers and delicious secrets, the season of goodwill becomes the backdrop for Willow Lake's most unlikely love story yet, the heartwarming holiday tale of two people looking beyond the disappointments of the past to the promise of the future.

Roberts' ANGEL LANE follows three small-town shop owners who do launch their crazy-ambitious "Have a Heart" campaign--asking neighbors to commit one random act of kindness every day. With irresistible humor, warmth, affection--"and recipes," Roberts serves up a generous, open-hearted holiday story about the friendships we make, the chances we take, and the lives we touch every day.
