My copy just arrived today; I can't wait to dig into it. For a sense of what she's writing about---and her approach---check her out on Radio Open Source, and on Fresh Air, among other places.
You can tell from what a terrific interview she is that she'd be a good person to hear read.
In fact, why don't we make a night of it? Wilkerson's reading from 6-7:30. Whoever's interested could also float west on Broad Street to the First Friday Artwalk, and then we could have dinner at Mama J's Kitchen or something...
Whether you can make the extracurriculars or not, I hope you can make the reading. I'm expecting her to be great....
Since my wife works at the Library of Virginia, you know I'll be on hand. The First Friday deal sounds cool, too.
ReplyDeleteThe book reading as well as dinner sound good. I have not been to Mama J's Kitchen but have heard that it is good.
ReplyDeleteI may try to make it. Will probably bring the wife with me.
