SUMMARY:Steven Zipperstein reading from Pogrom: Kishinev and the Tilt of History

SUMMARY:Mark Greenside Reads from (not quite) Mastering the Art of French Living
DESCRIPTION:Mark Greenside Reads from (not quite) Mastering the Art of French Living\, a sequel of sorts to I’ll Never Be French (no matter what I do)\, about which the San Francisco Chronicle wrote: “Imagine Larry David . . . spending a summer in a French village–against his will\, of course–and you get some sense of what Mark Greenside goes through.” \n\n\n\n\nEvery year upon arriving in Plobien\, the small Breton town where he spends his summers\, Mark Greenside picks back up where he left off with his faux-pas-filled Francophile life. Mellowed and humbled\, but not daunted (OK\, slightly daunted)\, he faces imminent concerns: What does he cook for a French person? Who has the right-of-way when entering or exiting a roundabout? Where does he pay for a parking ticket? And most dauntingly of all\, when can he touch the tomatoes? \nDespite the two decades that have passed since Greenside’s snap decision to buy a house in Brittany and begin a bi-continental life\, the quirks of French living still manage to confound him. Continuing the journey begun in his 2009 memoir about beginning life in France\, (Not Quite) Mastering the Art of French Living details Greenside’s daily adventures in his adopted French home\, where the simplest tasks are never straightforward but always end in a great story. Through some hits and lots of misses\, he learns the rules of engagement\, how he gets what he needs–which is not necessarily what he thinks he wants–and how to be grateful and thankful when (especially when) he fails\, which is more often than he can believe. \nMark Greenside has been a civil rights activist\, Vietnam War protestor\, anti-draft counselor\, Vista Volunteer\, union leader\, and college professor. His short stories have appeared in numerous journals and he is the author of a collection\, I Saw a Man Hit His Wife. Greenside resides in Alameda and Brittany.

SUMMARY:David Ulrich presents Zen Camera: Creative Awakening with a Daily Practice of Photograph
DESCRIPTION:An unprecedented photography practice that guides you to the creativity at your our fingertips\, calling for nothing more than your vision and any camera\, even the one embedded in your phone. \n“Zen Camera is to photographers what The Artist’s Way is to writers. This master class in creativity deserves a place in your home.”–Create with Joy \nTo reserve your seat\, purchase a copy of Zen Camera by speaking to a bookseller or ordering from our website. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nDavid Ulrich draws on the principles of Zen practice as well as forty years of teaching photography to offer six profound lessons for developing your self-expression. Doing for photography what The Artist’s Way and Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain did for their respective crafts\, Zen Camera encourages you to build a visual journaling practice called your Daily Record in which photography can become a path of self-discovery. Beautifully illustrated with 83 photographs\, its insights into the nature of seeing\, art\, and personal growth allow you to create photographs that are beautiful\, meaningful\, and uniquely your own. \nYou’ll ultimately learn to change the way you interact with technology–transforming it into a way to uncover your innate power of attention and mindfulness\, to see creatively\, and to live authentically. \n\nDavid Ulrich is a professor and co-director of Pacific New Media Foundation in Honolulu\, Hawai’i. He teaches frequent classes and workshops\, and is an active photographer and writer whose work has been published in numerous books and journals including Aperture\, Manoa\, and Sierra Club publications. Ulrich’s photographs have been exhibited internationally in more than 75 one-person and group exhibitions. He blogs about creativity and consciousness at www.theslenderthread.org\, and is a consulting editor for Parabola magazine. Visit his website at: www.creativeguide.com.
