Colfax Avenue: Author Barbara Wright, who grew up in North Carolina, traveled the world, and took up residence for a time in France, Korea, and El
Salvador, presents Crow, her first book for children. Set in the summer of 1898, just one generation beyond emancipation, in a thriving African American community, Crow is a story built on a real but little-known historical incident in which suddenly and violently these Americans lose their freedom, when a group of local politicians stages a successful coup d'etat in the United States."Wright has taken a little-known event and brought it to life vivid life, with a richly evoked setting of a town on the Cape Fear River." ~Horn Book, starred review Request a signed copy: books@tatteredcover.com

Historic LoDo: Meet Dave Isay, the founder of StoryCorps, the popular NPR series in which people share their lives. His new book is a celebration of love from StoryCorps. In All There Is, founder Dave Isay shares stories of love and marriage from the revolutionary oral history project, revealing the many and remarkable paths that relationships can take.From the excitement and anticipation
of courtship to the deep connection of lifelong commitment, we discover
that love is found in the most unexpected of places-a New York toll
booth, a military base in Iraq, an airport lounge. As the storytellers
in this book start careers, build homes, and raise families, we witness
the life-affirming joy of partnership, the comfort of shared sorrows,
and profound gratitude in the face of loss. These
stories are also testament to love's remarkable endurance. Love
survives discrimination, illness, poverty, time-even death. In the
courage of people's passion we are reminded of the strength and
resilience of the human spirit and its enduring capacity to begin anew.
This powerful collection bears witness to real love, in its many varied
forms, enriching our understanding of that most magical feeling. Request a signed copy: books@tatteredcover.com
