This post on Becky’s great blog, Deep Muck Big Rake, reminded me that just yesterday someone had told me that they thought that the author of Three Cups of Tea was going to be speaking at the Beachwood branch of the Cuyahoga County Public Library.
Sure enough, here’s the announcment:
Branch: Beachwood
Type of Event: Author Visit
Date: Friday, February 29, 2008 7:00 PM
David Oliver Relin is an award winning journalist and contributing editor for Parade and Skiing Magazine.
In Three Cups of Tea he collaborates with Greg Mortenson and tells the story of the unlikely journey that led Mortenson from a failed attempt to reach the peak of K2, the world’s second largest mountain, to the establishment of schools in the most remote areas of Central Asia.
A New York Times bestseller, the book has been featured on the Today Show and won numerous awards, including the Time Magazine Asia Book of the Year.
Sponsored by the Friends of the Library, books will be available for purchase.
Seating is on a first come/first serve basis!!
The event is on a Friday night so it’s doubtful I’ll be able to attend (Shabbat), but I’d encourage other people to read the book and go. You’ll be glad you did, I’m sure.
