SUMMARY:Jonathan Safran Foer\, Here I Am
DESCRIPTION:Bookshop Santa Cruz\, Institute for Humanities Research\, and Temple Beth El present best-selling and award-winning author Jonathan Safran Foer (Everything Is Illuminated\, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close) for a reading  and signing of his latest novel\, Here I Am. Ticket packages are $19.98 and include two tickets to the event and one copy of Here I Am in paperback (publication date: June 6th). Purchase tickets here  \nLocation: Santa Cruz High Theater \n“In Foer’s latest novel\, generations of history are laid on the shoulders of one modern Jewish-American family during a time of crisis. So much is endured\, revealed\, and lost that they seem inextricably bound to the reader. At the heart of it all is this: What does it mean to be fully present in one’s life? There are no easy answers\, but I am in awe at the skill with which Foer delves into the heart of familial life.” – Jax\, Bookshop Santa Cruz Staff \nUnfolding over four tumultuous weeks in present-day Washington\, D.C.\, Here I Am is the story of a fracturing family in a moment of crisis. As Jacob and Julia Bloch and their three sons are forced to confront the distances between the lives they think they want and the lives they are living\, a catastrophic earthquake sets in motion a quickly escalating conflict in the Middle East. At stake is the meaning of home—and the fundamental question of how much aliveness one can bear. One of the year’s most anticipated novels\, Here I Am is bestselling Safran Foer’s most searching\, hard-hitting\, and grandly entertaining novel yet. \nJonathan Safran Foer is the author of the novels Everything Is Illuminated and Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close\, and the nonfiction book Eating Animals. His work has received numerous awards and has been translated into thirty-eight languages. He lives in Brooklyn\, New York.

SUMMARY:37th Annual Dickens Universe featuring Middlemarch
DESCRIPTION:The Dickens Universe is a unique cultural event that brings together scholars\, teachers\, students\, and members of the general public for a week of stimulating discussion and festive social activity on the beautiful Santa Cruz campus of the University of California—all focused on one or two Victorian novels\, usually (but not always) one by Charles Dickens.\n\nIn 2017\, in anticipation of the 2019 bicentenary of George Eliot’s birth\, the Universe will feature her novel\, Middlemarch.\n\nNow in its 37th year of operation\, the Dickens Universe combines features of a scholarly conference\, a festival\, a book club\, and summer camp. Participants include people of all ages and walks of life—distinguished scholars\, graduate students\, undergraduates\, retirees\, young professionals\, high school teachers\, anyone who loves to read and who enjoys long Victorian novels.\n\nHere are some of the things that make the Universe such as special experience.\n\nThe college lifestyle: participants live on campus\, eat together in the student dining hall\, have time to meet and come to know each other in different ways.\nEveryone is reading the same book. We all have this one important thing in common.\nThe range of activities—formal lectures\, small discussion groups\, films\, daily Victorian teas\, performances\, and Victorian dancing.\n\n\n\nThe Universe offers a week of total immersion in the world of Victorian fiction with friendly\, like-minded colleagues in a beautiful setting. Whether we’re returning to a Dickens novel that everyone knows and loves\, or branching out into a Victorian novel by another author who might be less familiar\, during the Universe we build a community out of our passion of reading\, talking with one another\, and bringing Victorian culture to life.\nRegistration link: \n\nREGISTER HERE \nWatch the Dickens Project Mini Documentary {https://youtu.be/JJgV87yGBSs} \n
