SUMMARY:Gareth Hinds for The Odyssey: A Graphic Novel
DESCRIPTION:With bold imagery and an ear tuned to the music of Homer’s epic poem\, award-winning graphic artist Gareth Hinds reinterprets the ancient classic as it’s never been told before. A New York Times bestseller\, now in a sumptuous collectible edition with new cover design\, gold foil\, and stenciled edges. \n“Gareth Hinds brings The Odyssey to life in a masterful blend of art and storytelling. Vivid and exciting\, this graphic novel is a worthy new interpretation of Homer’s epic.” —Rick Riordan\, author of the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series \nFresh from his triumphs in the Trojan War\, Odysseus\, king of Ithaca\, wants nothing more than to return home to his family. Instead\, he offends the sea god\, Poseidon\, who dooms him to years of shipwreck and wandering. Battling man-eating monsters\, violent storms\, and the supernatural seductions of sirens and sorceresses\, Odysseus will need all his strength and cunning—and a little help from Mount Olympus—to make his way home and seize his kingdom from the schemers who seek to wed his queen and usurp his throne. Gareth Hinds masterfully reinterprets a story of heroism\, adventure\, and high action that has been told and retold for more than 2\,500 years—though never quite like this. \nGareth Hinds is the creator of critically-acclaimed graphic novels based on literary classics\, including Beowulf\, The Odyssey\, The Iliad\, Romeo & Juliet\, Macbeth\, and POE: Stories and Poems.” Gareth is a recipient of the Boston Public Library’s “Literary Lights for Children” award. His books can be found in bookstores and English classrooms across the country\, and his illustrations have appeared in such diverse venues as the Society of Illustrators\, the New York Historical Society\, and over a dozen published video games. \nIf you’d like to purchase this title online and still support People’s Book\, follow the link below: \nhttps://bookshop.org/a/98269/9781536254525 \nThis is an in-person event. Seated capacity at People’s Book is 50 patrons. Standing room is an option. All events are first-come\, first-served seating. Accessible seating is always available.

SUMMARY:Cara Benson for An Armsfull of Birds
DESCRIPTION:A story of recovery\, love\, and loss—a memoir of healing ourselves and the natural world. \nCara Benson did not come to love easy. As a low bottom addict\, she crawled through subway tunnels and partnered with an abusive man. When she came face to face with her own death\, she chose life. Her journey of survival led her into recovery\, to climbing mountains\, and ultimately to Jon\, the man with whom she cultivated a relationship that began as “second chance lovers” and slowly developed into one as lifetime partners. \nYears later\, Benson unexpectedly found herself in devastation as she came to terms with losing Jon to suicide. As she retreated into her grief\, she also retreated into the woods of upstate New York\, exploring the forests not as the avid hiker she’d become in recovery\, but as a meanderer who had lost her way. Here she found more grief in her observation of the effects of climate change. \nIn confronting her loss\, Benson came to realize that the lessons she learned from loving Jon in sickness\, health\, and death could be applied to her relationship with the non-human world. From squirreling away oak acorns for reforestation of a logged property to maintaining feeders for the birds Jon adored\, Benson’s daily life became a sort of field guide for how to live with a deep and abiding commitment to the future of the planet despite challenging odds. \nMoving through the intensely personal and kindred terrain of love\, recovery\, and loss\, An Armsfull of Birds is a climate memoir that tells the story of developing deeply held commitments to ourselves\, to those we love\, and ultimately to the ailing natural world. \nCara Benson‘s writing has been published in The New York Times\, Boston Review\, Orion\, Sierra Magazine\, The Brooklyn Rail\, Terrain\, and selected for Best American Poetry. She has received a New York Foundation for the Arts Fellowship and the bpNichol Award. Benson wrote a series on walking in the woods for the Best American Poetry website and taught poetry in a NY State Correctional Facility for eight years. She lives in a former church on the ancestral homelands of the Stockbridge-Munsee Band of Mohican Indians in upstate NY. An Armsfull of Birds: A Personal Field Guide to Love\, Loss\, and Commitment is her first memoir. \nMartha Anne Toll is a novelist and literary and cultural critic. Her second novel\, Duet for One\, came out this past spring to generous praise. Her debut novel\, Three Muses\, won the Petrichor Prize for Finely Crafted Fiction and was subsequently shortlisted for the Gotham Book Prize. Toll is a recipient of numerous fellowships at writers residencies. She is a member of the National Book Critics Circle\, and serves on the Board of Directors of the PEN/Faulkner Foundation. She comes to writing full-time after a career in social justice. \nRSVP HERE.

SUMMARY:Benny Peterson for The Maidenheads
DESCRIPTION:A big-hearted debut novel about queer yearning\, indie musicians\, and bushwacking a thorny path back to your first love. \nJamie is bad at endings\, which is why she’s stuck at a dead-end Baltimore newspaper job\, continuing to have break-up sex with her first-ever hetero partner\, and still being haunted by the what-ifs of her ex-girlfriend Mari—a charismatic and brilliant musician—and their former band together\, The Maidenheads. Since they (and their band) broke-up nearly a decade ago\, Jamie hasn’t been able to sing. \nBut when the unexpected opportunity to perform with Mari’s successful new D.C. band arises\, Jamie jumps at it. Her brain knows it might not be the best idea\, but her heart isn’t sure it can survive Mari’s gravitational pull a second time . . . \nElectric\, spine-tingling\, and filled to the brim with tenderness and honesty\, THE MAIDENHEADS is a portrait of the complex and neverending pull of first love and an ode to the life-changing power of music. Like the very best concert\, it’ll leave your ears ringing and your body totally spent. \nBenny B. Peterson (they/them) is a writer and editor based near Washington\, DC. A contributing editor at Washingtonian magazine\, they have also worked at Foreign Policy\, the New Republic\, and Street Sense\, DC’s street newspaper. They have written about culture\, politics\, gender\, and LGBTQ+ issues for The New York Times\, Washington Post\, Elle\, Slate\, and The Atlantic\, among other places\, and received an MFA in fiction from Bennington. \nLuke Sutherland is a writer\, librarian\, and publisher on Piscataway lands\, so-called Washington D.C. His chapbook Distance Sequence won the 2023 OutWrite Chapbook Contest\, published by Neon Hemlock Press. He is an editor at smoke + mold and helps run the trans small press Lilac Peril. Find him online as @lukejsuth. \nIf you’d like to purchase this title online and still support People’s Book\, follow the link below: \nhttps://bookshop.org/a/98269/9798217047147 \nThis is an in-person event.

SUMMARY:Lisa See for Daughters of the Sun and Moon
DESCRIPTION:Beloved New York Times bestselling author Lisa See draws on the vibrancy and turmoil of post-Civil War Los Angeles to tell the story of three Chinese women who managed to survive and\, eventually\, thrive\, despite all odds. \nIn 1870\, three Chinese women arrive in the small\, dusty\, and violent pueblo of Los Angeles. Dove\, the bound-footed daughter of an imperial scholar\, is entrancing and innocent. These characteristics should bring her great rewards\, beginning with her arranged marriage to a much older merchant. Petal\, the big-footed daughter of peasants\, has grown up hungry and with dirt between her toes. In a moment of desperation\, Petal’s father sells her to buy money for rice seed\, and she is loaded onto a ship to the Gold Mountain—America—where she is once again sold. Moon is married to a doctor of traditional Chinese medicine. She is educated\, speaks fluent English\, and has been endowed with a face of great beauty\, yet her failed footbinding as a child has left her with a limp that lessens her value in the eyes of many. \nEach woman has her own desires. Dove wants to love and be loved\, Petal desires freedom\, and Moon seeks justice. Together they face a larger society that wishes them not one ounce of good will. Anti-Chinese sentiment is strong in Los Angeles\, and this eventually leads to the Night of Horrors during which all three women are challenged in ways they could not have imagined. Brought together by hardship and heartbreak\, they must use their bravery\, endurance\, and ability to “eat bitterness” to discover their voices\, find freedom\, and connect through solace and friendship. Together they are daughters of the sun and moon. \nLisa See is the New York Times bestselling author of Lady Tan’s Circle of Women\, The Island of Sea Women\, The Tea Girl of Hummingbird Lane\, Snow Flower and the Secret Fan\, Peony in Love\, Shanghai Girls\, China Dolls\, and Dreams of Joy\, which debuted at #1. She is also the author of On Gold Mountain\, which tells the story of her Chinese American family’s settlement in Los Angeles. See was the recipient of the Golden Spike Award from the Chinese Historical Association of Southern California and the Historymaker’s Award from the Chinese American Museum. She was also named National Woman of the Year by the Organization of Chinese American Women. \nThis is an in-person event at the Montgomery College Cultural Arts Center. Purchase of Daughters of the Sun and Moon from Peoples Book is required to enter the signing line. Tickets can be purchased below: \nCLICK HERE TO BUY TICKETS

SUMMARY:Ariel Bierbaum\, PhD and Amy Bach\, PhD for Schools for Sale: Disinvestment\, Dispossession\, and School Building Reuse in Philadelphia
DESCRIPTION:A surprising look at what happens to the actual school buildings in the wake of school closures. \nSchool districts across the United States have closed thousands of schools since 2000 to cope with chronic underfunding and budget crises\, declining enrollment\, and poorly maintained buildings. Our knowledge about school closures has focused on battles over closure decision-making and the impacts of closing schools on communities of color in the immediate aftermath of these decisions. But what of the large\, sometimes magisterial\, formerly public spaces once at the center of community life? How do these now vacant buildings change daily life in the surrounding neighborhood? \nIn Schools for Sale\, Julia McWilliams\, Ariel H. Bierbaum\, Amy J. Bach\, and Elaine Simon examine how school closures change the spatial and social arrangements of neighborhoods. Following a series of school closures in Philadelphia\, the authors draw from research in urban studies\, education\, planning\, and geography to explain how race\, place\, and capital merge to influence the trajectory of closed schools in Black and Brown communities and their surrounding neighborhoods. Some closed schools are repurposed as charter schools\, upending the role those buildings have historically played in bringing communities together. Other buildings are sold for commercial development\, caught up in cycles of gentrification even as developers foster programs to support community members. Others are left vacant or are demolished in the heart of their neighborhoods\, decisions that reflect not only disinvestment in Black communities but the sobering reality of environmental racism. \nDrawing needed attention to one of the significant consequences of school closures\, Schools for Sale imparts a deeper understanding of the connections between place\, race\, and education amid broader urban transformations\, prompting us to consider how school districts can work toward a new vision for public education and community development. \nAriel Bierbaum\, PhD is an associate professor of urban studies and planning at the University of Maryland’s School of Architecture\, Planning\, and Preservation and a lecturer at the University of Pennsylvania’s Graduate School of Education in the Mid-Career Doctoral Program in Educational Leadership. Her cross-disciplinary research connects the fields of urban studies\, planning\, and public education. Dr. Bierbaum uses qualitative methods and draws from interdisciplinary scholarship in planning\, community development\, policy studies\, and geography to consider how the physical and social dimensions of schools and neighborhoods and cross-sector collaborative governance shape structures of metropolitan inequality and\, by extension\, students’ and families’ lived experiences. Dr. Bierbaum has over 25 years of experience in the non-profit and public sectors\, working in public policy\, cross-sector collaboration\, community development\, and community arts. She holds a PhD in City and Regional Planning from the UC-Berkeley\, a Master in City Planning from MIT\, and a BA in urban studies from the University of Pennsylvania. She is originally from New Jersey and grew up in Free Acres\, a utopian community founded in 1910 based on the principles of Henry George. After 7 years in Philadelphia and 12 years in Oakland\, CA\, she and her family now live in downtown Silver Spring\, Maryland. \nAmy J. Bach\, PhD is an associate professor of literacy/biliteracy education in the College of Education at the University of Texas at El Paso and the Provost’s Faculty Fellow for Community Engagement.  Dr. Bach uses ethnographic and discourse analytic methodologies to study the social and institutional contexts in which literacy is practiced and how these practices differ in value\, method\, and purpose across different sites and contexts. She also uses visual texts – their production and analysis through visual methodologies – to deepen understandings of educational policies and their effect on urban schools and communities. Her research has been supported by the Social Science Research Council\, the Greater Texas Foundation\, and the Spencer Foundation; her work has been published in Anthropology & Education Quarterly; Review of Education\, Pedagogy\, and Cultural Studies; Journal of Literacy Research; Cultural Anthropology and The Society of Cultural Anthropology’s collaborative Writing with Light initiative\, among others. Dr. Bach holds an Ed.D. in Reading/Writing/Literacy from the University of Pennsylvania’s Graduate School of Education\, her MA in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages from Teachers College\, and her BA with Honors in Spanish Language and Literature from the University of Wisconsin – Madison.  Originally from Milwaukee\, WI\, she lived 14 years in Philadelphia and now resides in El Paso\, TX with her family. \nIf you’d like to purchase this title online and still support People’s Book\, follow the link below: \nhttps://bookshop.org/a/98269/9780226850108 \nThis is an in-person event.

SUMMARY:Meg Elison for Foundling Fathers
DESCRIPTION:What would a teenage Benjamin Franklin do with an iPhone after he discovers porn? From Philip K. Dick Award winning author Meg Elison comes this ingenious satire of U.S. history and modern technocracy gone terribly\, terribly wrong. \nThe trouble starts when a curious young man finds a smartphone in his privy. The problem is\, it’s supposed to be the year 1750. \nThe Antediluvian Society—a shadowy cabal of right-wing billionaires—is fed up with a country they cannot fully control or understand. So they have done what any reasonable American patriots would do: Clone the Founding Fathers and raise them in secrecy. The plan\, unbeknownst to the boys\, is for them to restore America to its “original glory.” \nBen takes his technological discovery to his brothers\, Thomas\, John\, and George. The boys have been raised on an isolated island plantation by Mary Libertas\, a firm but kind woman\, and Jeff Hancock\, their de facto father. But the idyllic life is far too dull for young men. The boys have been chafing at the restrictions upon them (especially Tom\, who has impregnated yet another of the servants). Hancock is complaining to the Society that it’s well past the time to tell the boys where they come from and what they must do. \nUnfortunately for their keepers\, the young men now have a phone…and many other notions. \nSeamlessly combining science fiction and history with sharp\, witty commentary\, Meg Elison has once again shown why she is one of speculative fiction’s most exciting voices. \nMeg Elison is a Hugo\, Philip K. Dick and Locus award winning author\, as well as a Nebula\, Sturgeon\, Eugie\, and Otherwise awards finalist. A prolific short story writer and essayist\, Elison has been published in Scientific American\, McSweeney’s\, Clarkesworld\, Fangoria\, and Best American Science Fiction and Fantasy. Elison is a high school dropout and a graduate of UC Berkeley. She lives in the Berkshires. \nSarah Pinsker  is the author of over sixty works of short fiction\, one novella\, two novels\, and two collections. Her work has won four Nebula Awards (Best Novel\, A Song For A New Day; Best Novelette\, “Our Lady of the Open Road\,” Best Novelette\, “Two Truths And A Lie\,” Best Short Story\, “Where Oaken Hearts Do Gather\,”)\, two Hugo Awards (“Two Truths And a Lie” and “Where Oaken Hearts Do Gather”)\, the Philip K Dick Award\, the Locus Award\, the Eugie Foster Award\, and the Theodore Sturgeon Award\, and been nominated for numerous Nebula\, Hugo\, Locus\, and World Fantasy Awards. Her fiction has been translated into almost a dozen languages and published in magazines including Asimov’s\, Strange Horizons\, Fantasy & Science Fiction\, and Uncanny and in many anthologies and year’s bests. \nIf you’d like to purchase this title online and still support People’s Book\, follow the link below: \nhttps://bookshop.org/a/98269/9781616964580 \nThis is an in-person event.
