Los Angeles Literature Events 2/19/18 –2/25/18
William Glassley and A Wilder Time at the Last Bookstore
Join us as William Glassley presents his new book, A Wilder Time: Notes from a Geologist at the Edge of the Greenland Ice, and learn about the mysteries and lessons embedded in wilderness above the Arctic Circle. This book recounts the experiences of the author and two Danish colleagues while conducting research in one of the world’s most extensive wilderness terrains. It gives new perspective on our place in Nature, the value of wilderness, and how climate change is affecting that landscape.
William Glassley is a geologist at UC Davis, and an emeritus researcher at Aarhus University, Denmark. He is the author of over seventy research articles and a textbook on geothermal energy. This is his first book for a general audience.

Yoga for Writers at Hyde Park-Mariam Matthews Branch Library, LAPL–YA Event
Sunday at the Hollywood Hotel was a time to build community. 13 writers and active participants in the Los Ángeles literary community came together to discuss creating, nurturing and sustaining the community that means so much to them. Also, they came together to remind everyone, they too are writers, by sharing their work.
Please join us for our weekly series as we create finished works of poetry and writing for “zines.” Coffee and sweet breads will be served.

Everything must come to an end. Eventually. Los Ángeles writer, author of Grace (Counterpoint, 2016), Natasha Deón, creator of Dirty Laundry Lit, has decided it’s time to end the wildly popular and successful reading series in Hollywood, after seven plus years.
