SUMMARY:Vroman’s: Chang Sheng presents Oldman Part 3
DESCRIPTION:Chang Sheng\, in conversation with Wan-Chun Alex Ma\, presents Oldman Part 3 \nA beautiful queen rules her country with an iron fist. Unmarried and without an heir\, she adopts orphans as a way to prove that even commoners can reign as kings. Yet\, as the years progress\, she shows no sign of aging. Only one man knows the dark secret to her eternal youth: Oldman\, a bearded magician the queen has locked in her darkest dungeon. One night\, Oldman steps through the bars of his prison and disappears before the queen’s very eyes. Enraged\, she sends her army after him in a desperate campaign to keep her secret hidden. \nStaging his escape\, Oldman appears to step through the bars of his cell and vanish as if by magic\, cleverly misleading the guards. He rescues a neighboring prisoner\, an outlaw sword maiden who has had her arms and legs amputated. Upon taking her to a brilliant doctor who fits her with mechanical limbs\, Oldman and the sword maiden vow to take revenge on the queen that wronged them\, all the while evading the queen’s army as she launches a desperate campaign to keep her secret hidden. \nThe story continues as Oldman and his companions have escaped the palace after a failed peace negotiation\, but they’re being pursued by the full force of the queen’s army. The queen no longer treats Oldman’s resistance lightly; her orders for her soldiers are to capture his companions dead or alive… and send Oldman straight to her to face the queen’s wrath. (Eigomanga) \nHaving read comics from a young age\, Chang Sheng has always preferred science fiction stories best. He admits to having been deeply influenced by the work of Yukinobu Hoshino\, and his training in drawing and oil painting while studying at the Fu-Hsin Trade and Arts School is likewise reflected in his exquisitely detailed and extremely realistic video game-like style. Chang Sheng has represented Taiwan at the Angoulême International Comics Festival three times and has won several prizes overseas. Oldman was a finalist in the 2013 International Manga Award in Japan. \nModerator Wan-Chun Alex Ma is Academy Sci-Tech Award Recipient in 2019. His work on facial performance capture contributed to many recent motion pictures\, including the Hobbit trilogy\, Iron Man 3\, the reboot Planet of the Apes series. \n  \nPurchase your book at Vroman’s Bookstore or online at vromansbookstore.com.

SUMMARY:Vroman's: Brando Skyhorse\, in conversation with Jaime Paglia\, discusses 'My Name Is Iris'
DESCRIPTION:  \nIris Prince is starting over. After years of drifting apart\, she and her husband are going through a surprisingly drama-free divorce. She’s moved to a new house in a new neighborhood and has plans for gardening\, coffee clubs\, and spending more time with her nine-year-old daughter Melanie. It feels like her life is finally exactly what she wants it to be. \nThen\, one beautiful morning\, she looks outside her kitchen window–and sees that a wall has appeared in her front yard overnight. Where did it come from? What does it mean? And why does it seem to keep growing? \nMeanwhile\, a Silicon Valley startup has launched a high-tech wrist wearable called “the Band.” Pitched as a convenient\, eco-friendly tool to help track local utilities and replace driver’s licenses and IDs\, the Band is available only to those who can prove parental citizenship. Suddenly\, Iris\, a proud second-generation Mexican American\, is now of “unverifiable origin\,” unable to prove who she is\, or where she\, and her undocumented loved ones\, belong. Amid a climate of fear and hate-fueled violence\, Iris must confront how far she’ll go to protect what matters to her most. \nMy Name Is Iris is an all-too-possible story about family\, intolerance\, and hope\, offering a brilliant and timely look at one woman’s journey to discover who she can’t–and can–be.

SUMMARY:Vroman’s: Sonali Kolhatkar discusses Rising Up
DESCRIPTION:Sonali Kolhatkar discusses Rising Up: The Power of Narrative in Pursuing Racial Justice \nRising Up offers a timely exploration of how truthful narratives by and about people of color can be used to advance social justice in the United States. \nWhile people of color are fast becoming the majority population in the United States\, the perspectives of white America still dominate the vast majority of the media created and consumed every day. Media makers of color\, long shut out of the decision-making process\, are rising up to advance a set of different narratives\, offering stories and perspectives to counter the racism and disinformation that have long dominated America’s political and cultural landscape. \nIn Rising Up\, award-winning journalist Sonali Kolhatkar delivers a guide to racial justice narrative-setting. With a focus on shifting perspectives in news media\, entertainment\, and individual discourse\, she highlights the writers\, creators\, educators\, and influencers who are successfully building a culture of affirmation and inclusion. \n“Sonali Kolhatkar reminds us we are the stories we tell. Our stories can cast a spell of hate\, division\, and fear\, or they can break the powerful grip of racial injustices that have held us since our country’s beginning. With personal and collective wisdom\, Kolhatkar guides us in the storytelling that liberates.”–Luis J. Rodríguez\, author of Always Running: La Vida Loco/Gang Days in L.A. \nPurchase your book at Vroman’s Bookstore or online at vromansbookstore.com.

SUMMARY:Vroman’s: Bruce Borgos discusses The Bitter Past
DESCRIPTION:Bruce Borgos discusses The Bitter Past: A Mystery \nIn the tradition of Craig Johnson and C. J. Box\, Bruce Borgos’s The Bitter Past begins a compelling series set in the high desert of Nevada featuring Sheriff Porter Beck. \nPorter Beck is the sheriff in the high desert of Nevada\, north of Las Vegas. Born and raised there\, he left to join the Army\, where he worked in Intelligence\, deep in the shadows in far off places. Now he’s back home\, doing the same lawman’s job his father once did\, before his father started to develop dementia. All is relatively quiet in this corner of the world\, until an old\, retired FBI agent is found killed. He was brutally tortured before he was killed and clues at the scene point to a mystery dating back to the early days of the nuclear age. If that wasn’t strange enough\, a current FBI agent shows up to help Beck’s investigation. \nIn a case that unfolds in the past (the 1950s) and the present\, it seems that a Russian spy infiltrated the nuclear testing site and now someone is looking for that long-ago\, all-but forgotten person\, who holds the key to what happened then and to the deadly goings on now.

SUMMARY:Vroman’s: Dr. Aomawa Shields discusses Life on Other Planets
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Aomawa Shields discusses Life on Other Planets: A Memoir of Finding My Place in the Universe \nA stunning and inspiring memoir charting a life as an astronomer\, classically-trained actor\, mother\, and Black woman in STEM\, searching for life in the universe while building a meaningful life here on Earth \nAs a kid\, Aomawa Shields was always bumping into things\, her neck craned up at the sky\, dreaming of becoming an astronaut. A year into an astrophysics PhD program\, plagued by self-doubt and discouraged by a white male professor who suggested that she–a young Black woman who also loved fashion\, makeup\, and the arts–didn’t belong\, she left astronomy and pursued acting professionally for a decade\, before a day job working for NASA’s Spitzer Space Telescope drew her back to the stars. She was the oldest and the only Black student in her PhD cohort. This time\, no professor\, and no voice in her own head\, would stop her. Now an astronomer and astrobiologist at the top of her field\, Dr. Shields studies the universe outside our Solar System\, researching and uncovering the planets circling distant stars with just the right conditions that could support life–while also using her theater education to communicate the wonder and magic of the universe with those of us here on Earth. But it’s been a journey as winding and complex as the physics she has mastered. \nLife on Other Planets is a journey of discovery on this world and on others\, a story of creating a life that makes space for joy\, love\, and wonder while being driven by one of our biggest questions: Is anybody else out there? It is about the possibility of living between multiple worlds and not choosing–but instead charting a new path entirely. (Viking) \nPurchase your book at Vroman’s Bookstore or online at vromansbookstore.com.
