Two upcoming author appearances happening next week:

Barbara Hodgson, author of Italy Out of Hand: A Capricious Tour
Monday, May 23, 7:30 pm
Distant Lands, Pasadena, CA

Author Barbara Hodgson found a wide audience for her first travel book, Paris Out of Hand: A Wayward Guide. Now, join her for a special evening as she reads from her new book. Not a traditional guidebook, this is an idiosyncratic tour of Italy, with an eclectic treasury of forgotten and overlooked oddities, illustrated with an equally eclectic selection of photographs, portraits and art.

Stephen Clark, author of A Year in the Merde
Thursday, May 26th, 7:30 pm
Powell’s City on Burnside, Portland, OR

An urban antidote to A Year in Provence, Stephen Clarke’s A Year in the Merde is a laugh-out-loud account of a year in the life of an expat in Paris — for Francophiles and Francophobes alike. Stephen Clarke is clearly a Bill Bryson (or a Peter Mayle) for a whole new generation of readers who can never quite decide whether they love — or love to hate — the French. More info here.
