Itinerario de la Feria del Libro



 

 

Inauguration Celebration
5 p.m. Auditorium (Bldg. 1, 2nd Floor)
This year's opening festivities feature dignitaries and surprise guests, a ribbon cutting ceremony and a performance from the musical masterpiece Man of La Mancha , commissioned exclusively for the 400th anniversary celebration of Don Quixote at the Fair. Immediately afterwards, a tapas and wine reception will be held on the fourth floor terrace (Bldg. 1), compliments of the restaurant Casa Panza.

An Afternoon With Margaret Atwood
4 p.m. Auditorium (Bldg. 1. 2nd Floor)
Canadian writer Margaret Atwood is both multitalented and prolific. She is the author of eleven previous novels, at least a dozen volumes of poetry, and numerous short stories, essays, reviews and what she calls "personal prose," as well as several children's books. Her new novel, The Penelopiad: The Myth of Penelope and Odysseus (Grovel Atlantic, $18.00), is something ofa departure for her, since her earlier books have taken place in the present, the fairly recent past or in an unspecified future, as in The Handmaid's Tale. She now travels far into the past to retell the story of Penelope, who waits twenty years for her husband to return from the Trojan War. "Homer's Odyssey is not the only version ofthe story," she tells us. Atwood has drawn on other material, "especially for the details of Penelope's parentage, her early life and marriage, and the scandalous rumors circulating about her." Atwood, the recipient of several major literary awards, lives in Toronto with the writer Graeme Gibson.

An Evening With Mike Wallace
7p.m. Chapman (Bldg. 3, 2nd Floor)
Mike Wallace has been a broadcast journalist since the 1940s and a 60 Minutes correspondent since its inception in 1968. During those 60 or more years, he has reported on major events around the world and has interviewed most of the important figures, both famous and infamous, who have dominated the headlines. In his new book, Between You and Me: A Memoir (Hyperion, $26.95), he shares that wealth of experience with his readers. Through his personal stories and behind-the-scenes observations, we gain new insight into the world leaders, politicians, celebrities, whistleblowers, lawbreakers and other newsmakers who have submitted themselves to his incisive style of questioning. This is a must-read for anyone interested in an insider's view of history in the making. In recognition of his extraordinary career, Wallace has received a wealth of journalistic awards, including a Lifetime Achievement Emmy in September 2003, as well as 19 other Emmy Awards over the years, three Alfred DuPont-Columbia University Awards, three George Foster Peabody Awards, several honorary degrees and much, much more.

And in Spanish... An Evening With Carlos Alberto Montaner
6:30 p.m. Batten (Bldg. 2, Rm. 2106)

An Evening With Marilynne Robinson
7:30 p.m. Chapman (Bldg. 3, 2nd Floor)
Marilynne Robinson writes sparingly but superbly. Her first novel, Housekeeping (1981), received the PEN/Hemingway award for best first novel and was nominated for the Pulitzer Prize. Her second one, Gilead: A Novel (Picador, $14.00), published 23 years later, is the winner of the 2004 National Book Critics Circle award and the 2005 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction. Gilead takes the form of a letter written in 1956 by an elderly minister, John Ames, to his six-year-old son as a sort of familial and spiritual legacy. In the letter, he describes not only his own life, but the difficult relationships between his father and grandfather, both ministers -- the first a dedicated pacifist and the second a fiery abolitionist -- and between himself and his ne'er-do-well namesake, John Ames Broughton. To a large extent, Gilead is a meditation on fathers and sons, on life in America, on the beauty of the world and on faith, love and reconciliation. Robinson, who is also the author of two non-fiction works, teaches at the University of Iowa Writer's Workshop.

And in Spanish . . .

An Evening With Andrew Weil
7:30 p.m. Chapman (Bldg. 3, 2nd Floor)
Dr. Andrew Weil is arguably this country's best known medical authority. A graduate of Harvard Medical School, he is an internationally recognized expert on medicinal herbs, mindbody interactions and integrative medicine, which combines the best ideas and practices of alternative and conventional medicine in order to maximize the body's natural healing mechanisms. The author of 10 previous books, including the national bestsellers Spontaneous Healing, Eight Weeks to Optimum Health and Eating Well for Optimum Health, he also writes Self Healing, a monthly newsletter, and maintains the Web site drweil.com. Now he has turned his attention to a subject of universal interest in Healthy Aging: A Lifelong Guide to Your Physical and Spiritual Well-Being (Knopf, $27.95). In this book he draws on the new science of biogerentology (the biology of aging) as well as on the secrets of healthy longevity -- diet, activity and attitude -- that he has gathered firsthand from cultures around the world. A book for people of all ages, this may be his most important and far-reaching work to date.

An Evening With Jonathan Kozol
7:30 p.m. Chapman (Bldg. 3, 2nd Floor)
Jonathan Kozol was fired by the Boston school system for reading from a book of poetry by Langston Hughes. Soon after, he wrote the National Book Award winner, Death at an EarlyAge: The Destruction of the Hearts and Minds of Negro Children in the Boston Public Schools. A passionate voice for more than three decades on the issues of race, poverty and education, Kozol visited nearly 60 public schools for his newest book, The Shame of the Nation: The Restoration of Apartheid Schooling in America (Crown, $25.00). Filled with the voices of children, their teachers and some of the most revered leaders in the black community, the book targets the recent re-segregation of our public schools, the profound inequities minority children face and the "testing mania" that has overtaken all schools. A non-fiction writer, educator and activist who is best known for his books on public education in the United States, Kozol has been working with children in innercity schools for more than 40 years. Chicago Sun-Times calls him, "today's most eloquent spokesman for America's disenfranchised."

An Evening With Joan Didion
7:30 p.m. Chapman (Bldg. 3, 2nd Floor)
Iconic writer Joan Didion is the author of five novels and seven books of non-fiction, as well as several screenplays on which she collaborated with her late husband, writer John Gregory Dunne. She is best known, however, for her uniquely personalized social and political commentary. A fifth generation Californian, her native state has provided her with the raw material for some of her most admired work. Her trenchant observations (often unfavorable) of cultural change in California in her highly regarded collections of essays Slouching Toward Bethlehem (1968) and The White Album (1979) made her reputation. In 1987 she turned her attention to South Florida in Miami, described as "a masterly study of immigration and exile." In her most recent book, The Year of Magical Thinking (Knopf, $23.95), she chronicles the year following the sudden death in 2003 of her husband of 40 years at a time when their only daughter was in the hospital, desperately ill, an experience that she says "cut loose any fixed idea I ever had . . . about the shallowness of sanity, about life itself."

Paquito D'Rivera presents his book My Sax Life to college and high school music students and jazz aficionados from the general public.
3:30 p.m., Batten (Bldg. 2, Rm. 2106)

An Evening With Terry McMillan
7:30 p.m. Chapman (Bldg. 3, 2nd Floor)
Bestselling African-American author Terry McMillan has won a legion of fans with her wise and witty tales of contemporary women and the issues they face. She is especially noted for her often hilarious depiction of loving but frustrating families and supportive female friendships. McMillan, who calls her six successful novels "character-driven," has a rare gift for reating real people with real problems that sparkle with both honesty and humor. Two of her books, the very popular Waiting to Exhale and How Stella Got Her Groove Back, have been made into major motion pictures. Her newest novel, The Interruption of Everything (Viking, $25.95) , takes us right into the heart of a typical mid-life dilemma -- 40-something Marilyn Grimes spends so much time and energy meeting the demands of others that there's almost nothing left for her own needs and dreams. Something's got to give, but as so often happens, life takes a couple of unexpected turns while Marilyn is making other plans. McMillan, who is also the editor of Breaking Ice: An Anthology of Contemporary Black Writers, has received a number of awards for her writing.
