Ted Chiang

Welcome to Wild Read! Inspired by the writing of Octavia Butler, our speculative fiction book club reads and discusses books imagining a range of possible futures and parallel presents from diverse cultural perspectives. Drawing upon different experiences of the present and different understandings of the past Wild Read book selections use adventurous plots and unreal settings to explore very real themes like race, gender, spirituality, science, mythology and power.

Join us Sunday, June 22nd at 2pm for a discussion of Ted Chiang's Stories of Your Life: and Others. All are welcome but please RSVP at our store, Facebook, by phone (612-454-0455) or by email (info@moonpalacebooks.com) and we'll set up a chair for you.

SciFi fans, please join us for our second annual SciFiFest! Hugo & Nebula award winning authors Ted Chiang and Nancy Kress will read their work, answer questions, and challenge you to a SciFi trivia throwdown.

Local heroes Mutoid Men will close out the evening with their special brand of "particle-accelerated, Moog synthesized, scientific rock'n'roll." Come in costume and win a prize! The library is normally closed at this time and is only open for the program. This event is sponsored by the Friends of the Olympia Timberland Library. (agathafrye)… (meer)
