SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: Cara Black discusses & signs Huguette
DESCRIPTION:In the lawlessness of post-World War II France\, a resilient young woman fights to survive and make a living\, no matter the cost–from the New York Times bestselling author of Three Hours in Paris and the Aimée Leduc series \nAfter Libération\, spring 1945: Seventeen-year-old Huguette Faure is a survivor. The war has taken everything from her–both her parents and her sense of safety. Now\, pregnant and on the lam\, she cannot return to her childhood home in Paris. Forced to reinvent herself\, she must outrun her father’s enemies\, who want her dead. After narrowly avoiding jail time–thanks to the help of a kindhearted police officer named Claude Leduc–Huguette lands a job assisting a legendary film director. As her role develops from helping him with chores to cooking his books\, she sees an opportunity to break free from the ghosts of her past once and for all. \nIn this big-hearted story of resilience\, New York Times bestselling author Cara Black offers a wholly original depiction of postwar France as well as introduces Claude Leduc–the man who decades later inspired his granddaughter\, Aimée\, to become a private investigator.

SUMMARY:Pasadena Playhouse: Amadeus
DESCRIPTION:The stage is set at Pasadena Playhouse for a riveting\, white-hot rivalry between two composers: Antonio Salieri\, the court’s celebrated musician\, and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart\, the vulgar prodigy whose brilliance threatens everything Salieri holds dear. Lavishly laced with biting wit\, this Tony and Oscar-winning masterpiece dives deep into ambition\, envy\, and the intoxicating cost of genius. Amadeus unfolds in a world where music ignites obsession and drama crescendos into legend.

SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: Kim Samek\, in conversation with Aimee Bender\, discusses & signs I Am the Ghost Here: Stories
DESCRIPTION:Twelve women confront the mounting existential terrors of modern life in this absurd\, wryly hilarious debut story collection. \nA woman’s limbs disappear into “the cloud” during wildfire-induced power outages. A lonely DoorDasher accidentally becomes the star of someone else’s reality show\, forced to resolve her fraught relationship with her immigrant mother for the narrative. Succumbing to a widely denied pandemic\, a gymnastics coach must carry her heart around in a Mason jar\, using her disability to become an influencer. Two chronically single\, chronically ill people become soulmates\, only to discover their meeting was algorithmically orchestrated by ad tech. Other dramas unfold as icebergs melt and island-sized trash heaps burn. \nThreaded with sharp social commentary\, these stories question the engineering of human connection through technology\, social media\, and reality television. Warm\, endlessly strange\, and filled with dark yet hopeful humor\, I Am the Ghost Here casts familiar crises of contemporary life in a wholly unique light\, offering a pathway towards our shared humanity even as reality comes crumbling down.

SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore:  Mopreme Shakur\, in conversation with Robin D. G. Kelley\, discusses & signs This Thug’s Life: An Unapologetically Black Story
DESCRIPTION:The first-ever insider account of the Shakur family\, the iconic hip hop group T.H.U.G. L.I.F.E.\, and the life and death Tupac Shakur – written by Mopreme Shakur\, the legendary rapper’s big brother and eldest son of Black liberation activist Mutulu Shakur. \nMaurice. Little Mutulu. Mogie. Mocedes. ‘Preme. Wycked. Mopreme Shakur has been known by many names. Fitting for a multi-hyphenate like Mo: hip hop artist and sole surviving member of T.H.U.G. L.I.F.E. and Outlaw Immortalz\, soldier\, writer\, husband and father\, filmmaker\, record producer\, and the big brother of\, and co-collaborator with\, the legendary Tupac Shakur\, the greatest rapper of all time. The one thing Mo hasn’t done–until now–is to tell his story\, one of complex family relationships\, fame\, tragedy\, politics\, musical innovation\, and brotherly love. \nBorn in Flushing\, New York\, in 1967 and raised in South Jamaica\, Queens\, Mo got an early education in what it meant to be a man of righteous New Afrikan values imparted by his activist and healer father\, Mutulu. The son of revolutionary\, Mo’s childhood was rife with upheavals\, inspiration\, dramatic highs and lows\, and unbreakable bonds of love. None stronger than when he met his new baby brother\, Tupac. Mutulu said\, “This is your brother. Hold his hand.” Over the more than two decades that followed\, Mopreme never let go. As Tupac rose to transcendent heights in the industry\, Mo was on Pac’s team as writer and collaborator\, producer\, stagehand\, and sibling confidante. Everything Pac did\, Mo was there–right up until the day Pac’s life was cut short in a drive-by shooting in Las Vegas. \nIn his memoir\, Mo shares not just an intimately personal story of family\, but also one of resilience\, a quest for racial justice informed by decades of struggle for Black liberation long before the Black Lives Matter movement\, and of two brothers who rose from the streets to become icons. It’s insightful\, inspirational\, powerful\, and authentically and unapologetically Black. As Mo himself would say: dig that!

SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore:  Michael Yang discusses & signs Coming Alive on the Ride: A Memoir of Motorcycle Travel\, Self-Discovery\, and Korean Heritage
DESCRIPTION:Answering the call of the open road–from Seoul to Silicon Valley to riding 40\,000 life-changing miles across America \nWhen Michael Yang bought his first motorcycle\, he was a teenager who’d just moved to America. He knew little English and had few friends. Still\, whenever he rode that green Yamaha\, he felt more in touch with life’s possibilities. The bike was stolen a few months later\, but Yang never forgot the feeling. \nIt wasn’t until later in life that Yang got back on a motorcycle. By then\, he’d settled into Silicon Valley amidst the technology revolution; and founded\, scaled\, and sold a half-billion-dollar tech startup. Then\, during the upheaval of the dot-com bubble burst and a few failed attempts to get new companies off the ground\, Yang felt a strong pull to reengage with himself. Sensing that this midlife crisis was an opportunity to do something fun and exciting\, he revved up his bike and began riding into unfamiliar landscapes. Coming Alive on the Ride narrates more than 40\,000 miles of his travels\, from California’s coast to the upper reaches of Alaska\, Canada’s far eastern edge\, and more. \nOne thing about long motorcycle trips is that there’s a lot of time to think. Yang describes the unique bliss of watching the miles pass beneath two wheels as he relives moments from his past–growing up in Korea during the turbulent years after the Korean War\, and moving to America as a fourteen-year-old–all the while taking in North America’s astounding scenery\, from the stillness of the desert to heart-racing glimpses of a bison herds and grand mountain ranges. Somewhere along the way\, it happens: Past experiences and future aspirations converge into a present discovery. This inspiring memoir is a reminder that\, if we slow down and tune in our senses\, adventure inspires and instructs the way nothing else can.
