We have a wonderful time here, though our catering is a little lame.... This summer we have been reading authors who are coming to the Sonoma County Book Festival this Sept. 10: in July, Dorothy Allison's CAVEDWELLER; in August, a retrospective of Sue Miller's novels -- read the one you want and bring it to the table; in September, a retrospective of Lynn Freed. Then in October we'll be reading Anne Michaels' FUGITIVE PIECES and in November, Marlilynne Robinson's GILEAD. A sabbatical in December, but then we'll be back in business with a new list, so email Rosemary Manchester at rmanch@pacbell.net or telephone her at 823-3477 FMI (and to hear the voice made familiar on KRCB's program "A Novel Idea."
