SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: Kobina Commeh reads from & signs Kwesi & Nana Ruby Learn to Swim
DESCRIPTION:“A wonderful story to show how it is possible to overcome our fears of doing something new by accepting help from others” — School Library Journal\, starred review \nKwesi doesn’t know how to swim… and discovers his grandmother doesn’t either! Can they conquer their fear of water together with the help of the West African legend Mami Wata? \n“How about we make a deal?” Nana rubbed Kwesi’s head. “I will learn to swim\, if you do.” \n“Deal!” \nKwesi likes spending time at the lake with his friends\, except there’s one tiny problem… he can’t swim. But guess what? Neither can Nana Ruby! When she comes over for dinner one night\, she tells Kwesi about when she moved from Ghana to the US and the history of segregation that kept her out of pools and caused a fear of water among many Black people. \n“So I will never learn how to swim?” Kwesi asks. But Nana Ruby tells him they will call on the strength of Mami Wata\, the sea creature of West African legend\, to conquer their fears together. This touching intergenerational story teaches the importance of naming\, acknowledging and facing fears.

SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: Chris Santiago reads from and signs Small Wars Manual: Poems
DESCRIPTION:“Small Wars Manual is a masterpiece\, one of those books I read and know at once I’ll be coming back to the rest of my life.”–Kaveh Akbar\, author of Martyr! \nFrom award-winning poet Chris Santiago\, a far-reaching collection of erasures and original poems examining the long shadow of American militarism and imperialism. \nStemming in part from a disturbingly mundane military document of the same name\, Small Wars Manual is a how-to for imperialism that critically dismantles itself with each passing line\, “a pidgin // containing elements // of animus and // insubordination.” In its wake\, the very boundaries of oppression and resistance\, art and justice\, and power and truth exploded. \nHighly conceptual yet gut-wrenching\, this meticulous and visionary masterpiece of erasure poetry and other forms sinks into the cold mechanics of American warfare in the Philippines and Vietnam to reveal a brutal rhetoric. In more autobiographical sections\, Chris Santiago’s own Filipino immigrant background reveals hard-lived experiences\, where “stars can guide // either bayonets // or refugees” and “even small wars waged // on the living room floor” cause trepidation and harm. \nThis righteous collection redeems the vulnerable from the aggressors–empire\, army\, their systems and tools–and transforms everything in the process. In the hands of Santiago\, the deconstructive becomes the eviscerating\, condemning all wars that upend countries and mark generations. Here are shining poems that make shelter of chaos\, by one of the most skillful and intrepid poets writing today.

SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: Mariah Blake discusses & signs They Poisoned the World: Life and Death in the Age of Forever Chemicals
DESCRIPTION:A landmark investigation of the chemical industry’s decades-long campaign to hide the dangers of forever chemicals\, told through the story of a small town on the frontlines of an epic public health crisis \nIn 2014\, after losing several friends and relatives to cancer\, an unassuming insurance underwriter in Hoosick Falls\, New York\, began to suspect that the local water supply was polluted. When he tested his tap water\, he discovered dangerous levels of forever chemicals. This set off a chain of events that led to 100 million Americans learning their drinking water was tainted. Although the discovery came as a shock to most\, the U.S. government and the manufacturers of these toxic chemicals–used in everything from lipstick and cookware to children’s clothing–had known about their hazards for decades. \nIn They Poisoned the World\, investigative journalist Mariah Blake tells the astonishing story of this cover-up\, tracing its roots back to the Manhattan Project and through the postwar years\, as industry scientists discovered that these chemicals refused to break down and were saturating the blood of virtually every human being. By the 1980s\, manufacturers were secretly testing their workers and finding links to birth defects\, cancer\, and other serious diseases. At every step\, the industry’s deceptions were aided by our government’s appallingly lax regulatory system–a system that has made us all guinea pigs in a vast\, uncontrolled chemistry experiment. \nDrawing on years of on-the-ground reporting and tens of thousands of documents\, Blake interweaves the secret history of forever chemicals with the moving story of how a lone village took on the chemical giants–and won. From the beloved local doctor to the young mother who took her fight all the way to the nation’s capital\, citizen activists in Hoosick Falls and beyond have ignited the most powerful grassroots environmental movement since Silent Spring. \nHumane and revelatory\, this book will provoke outrage–and hopefully inspire the change we need to protect the health of every American for generations to come. \nMariah Blake is an investigative journalist whose writing has appeared in The Atlantic\, Mother Jones\, The New Republic\, and other publications. She was a Murrey Marder Nieman Fellow in Watchdog Journalism at Harvard University.

SUMMARY:Pasadena Playhouse: A Doll's House Part 2
DESCRIPTION:Nora’s back—15 years after walking out on her family—is ready to confront the fallout of her iconic escape. Bold\, satisfying\, and packed with razor-sharp twists\, Lucas Hnath’s Tony-nominated play dives into the messy reality of what it means to be a woman living on your terms. It’s complicated. It’s witty. And it’s happening at Pasadena Playhouse. Get your tickets for A Doll’s House\, Part 2\, and don’t miss this audacious sequel 146 years after Ibsen’s classic. \n“WAIT\, I DON’T THINK I SAW A DOLL’S HOUSE\, PART 1…” \nA Doll’s House\, Part 2 (2017) is a “sequel” to one of the most influential plays in the history of theater – Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen’s A Doll’s House (1879). The good news is that you do not need to have seen the original to enjoy Part 2. All you need to know is that at the end of Ibsen’s play\, Nora\, a mother and wife\, walks out on her husband and three young children. Slamming the door behind her—a moment frequently referred to as the slam heard around the world—she made a dramatic exit that shocked audiences and shook the foundations of 19th-century theatre.

As a woman journalist from India making her way through the cutthroat world of tabloid newspapers\, she’s always on the lookout for untold stories. \nIn the aftermath of a bloody shooting in Chinatown\, Archana finds her most challenging subject-the dreaded gangster Mock Duck. But she realizes that things are not as they seem when the mayor declares Chinatown must be demolished\, and the authorities raid Mock’s home and tear apart his family. She embarks on a quest for the truth that leads her from gritty alleys to the back-room politics of City Hall and beyond. \nInspired by real events\, No. 10 Doyers Street is a gripping novel of New York City on the cusp of modernity\, as seen through a unique immigrant perspective.

SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: Lian Dolan discusses Abigail and Alexa Save the Wedding
DESCRIPTION:Everyone loves–and hates–a big fancy wedding! From the author of Lost and Found in Paris and The Marriage Sabbatical comes a champagne-sparkling summer read about two very different women planning their children’s wedding in glamorous Montecito\, California. \nYou’re invited…to a delightful modern comedy of manners about two moms\, the best-laid plans\, and one very memorable wedding. \nPenelope and Chase make a lovely couple. She’s a bubbly Southern California girl with killer work ethic. Chase is smart and charming and has political aspirations. They’re planning a spectacular California wedding\, wrapped in peonies and thousands of little white lights\, soaked in custom cocktails and romantic hashtags. Everyone’s excited about Penny and Chase’s wedding——–except their mothers. \nThe Mother of the Bride\, suave Greek-born Alexa Diamandis\, doesn’t understand why any woman would get married. Ever! Raised in Athens and now perfectly situated in sun-splashed Montecito\, California\, she raised Penny as single mother by choice\, supported by Lord Simon Fox\, her old college friend who just happens to be an English aristocrat\, and a wealthy circle of lady friends who call themselves the Merry Widows. \nThe Mother of the Groom\, Abigail Blakeman\, is a garden club stalwart firmly planted in coastal Connecticut. She thinks the whole enterprise would be so much easier if the wedding was at their golf club. Especially because the Blakeman’s fortunes have taken a turn for the worse–not that you would ever know it by looking at Abigail. Keeping up appearances is exhausting\, but it is everything. \nBut when a sudden twist of fate calls them into action\, these two very different women are forced to take over the wedding planning. Despite their differences\, Alexa and Abigail charge in to save the day. How far will two moms go to make their children’s dream wedding a reality?

SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: TICKETED - Christopher Moore discusses Anima Rising
DESCRIPTION:From New York Times bestselling author Christopher Moore comes a hilariously deranged tale of a mad scientist\, a famous painter\, and an undead woman’s electrifying journey of self-discovery. \nVienna\, 1911. Gustav Klimt\, the most famous painter in the Austrian Empire\, the darling of Viennese society\, spots a woman’s nude body in the Danube canal. He knows he should summon a policeman\, but he can’t resist stopping to make a sketch first. And as he draws\, the woman coughs. She’s alive! \nBack at his studio\, Klimt and his model-turned-muse Wally tend to the formerly-drowned girl. She’s nearly feral and doesn’t remember who she is\, or how she came to be floating in the canal. Klimt names her Judith\, after one of his most famous paintings\, and resolves to help her find her memory. \nWith a little help from Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung\, Judith recalls being stranded in the arctic one hundred years ago\, locked in a crate by a man named Victor Frankenstein\, and visiting the Underworld. \nSo how did she get here? And why are so many people chasing her\, including Geoff\, the giant croissant-eating devil dog of the North? \nPoor Things meets Bride of Frankenstein in Anima Rising\, Christopher Moore’s most ingenious (and probably most hilarious) novel yet. \nThis is a ticketed in-store event. Tickets include one entry and one signed copy of Anima Rising. For any guest who wants their signed copy to be personalized\, Chris will also stay for a signing line following the event.

SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: Edward Underhill discusses In Case You Read This
DESCRIPTION:From acclaimed author Edward Underhill comes a trans rom-com about serendipity\, chance encounter\, and the ultimate missed connection. This joyful celebration of queer love and found family is perfect for fans of Becky Albertalli\, Emery Lee\, and Julian Winters. \nArden isn’t excited about moving. Los Angeles was an easy place to fit in and find a supportive queer community. But Winifred\, Michigan? That sounds like a much more difficult place to exist. \nPasadena\, California\, is the perfect city for Gabe’s reinvention. Everyone knew everything about him in small-town Shelby\, Illinois. Gabe\, who wants to be out and proud\, can’t wait to relocate. \nWhen Arden and Gabe randomly meet in the lobby of a motel in Nebraska\, it feels like fate. Both are trans\, but more importantly\, both are huge fans of the band Damaged Pixie Dream Boi. Clearly\, the universe is trying to tell them something. Right? \nBut after an incredible evening of hanging out\, the pair part ways only knowing the other’s first name. And as both boys struggle to adjust to their new homes\, their thoughts keep being drawn back to their time together. Is one perfect night enough to bring Arden and Gabe back to each other\, or will the boys need some help to find each other again?https://vromansbookstore.com/event/2025-05-24/edward-underhill-conversation-racquel-marie-discusses-case-you-read
