Colfax Avenue: Everyone who has read, or is reading, The Help, by Kathryn Stockett—this year’s selection for the One Book, One Denver program—is welcome to join us for a book discussion. The discussion will be lead by Dr. Bianca Robinson Williams. Ms. Williams is an Assistant Professor of Ethnic Studies at the University of Colorado at Boulder. Her research in the U.S. and Jamaica investigates the various strategies black men and women utilize to pursue happiness and maintain good mental health individually and as communities. In her spare time, Williams enjoys reading the fictional works of authors such as Jodi Picoult, Zadie Smith and Wally Lamb.  

Historic LoDo: Author Daniel Pinchbeck has deep personal roots in the New York counterculture of the 1950s and 1960s. His father was an abstract painter, and his mother, Joyce Johnson, was a member of the Beat Generation and dated Jack Kerouac. Pinchbeck, the author of several previous books including 2012: The Return of Quetzalcoatl, Breaking Open the Head: A Psychedelic Journey into the Heart of Contemporary Shamanism, and Towards 2012: Perspectives on the Next Age, will discuss and sign his new book Notes from the Edge Times ($23.95 Tarcher).
