SUMMARY:Opening today - Do You Know My Name?
DESCRIPTION:Inspired by the MAH publication of the same name\, uncover inspiring stories about Santa Cruz County residents from the early 20th century to the present. \nGet to know the overlooked\, hidden\, and relatable histories of the people of Santa Cruz County from the 19th century to today. Popping-up in a breakout history pod inside our Santa Cruz County History Gallery\, the exhibit will also debut online in the Winter of 2020. \nPulling from the MAH publication by the same name\, Do You Know My Name?\, uncover the stories of ordinary people who never made the news\, never rose to fame\, yet overcame adversity to find fulfillment in art\, invention\, or community. \nConnect to the everyday histories of our community as the exhibit ushers everyone in as valuable and necessary contributors to the historical record of Santa Cruz County. Your story\, like those featured in the exhibit\, informs our County’s history as much as the monumental\, newsworthy moments. \nHonoring Phil Reader\, the Santa Cruz historian to whom the publication is dedicated\, the exhibit will draw from the experience\, materials\, and expertise of local historical societies\, community members\, and original oral histories.

SUMMARY:Ruth Ozeki: The Book of Form and Emptiness
DESCRIPTION:TICKETED VIRTUAL EVENT: Bookshop Santa Cruz welcomes bestselling author and staff favorite Ruth Ozeki for an online discussion of The Book of Form and Emptiness\, her brilliantly inventive novel about loss\, growing up\, and our relationship with things. Ozeki will be in conversation with writer Katie Kitamura. Cosponsored by The Humanities Institute at UC Santa Cruz and Vroman’s Bookstore. \n“This compassionate novel of life\, love and loss glows in the dark. Its strange\, beautiful pages turn themselves. If you’ve lost your way with fiction over the last year or two\, let The Book of Form and Emptiness light your way home.” —David Mitchell\, Booker Prize-finalist author of Cloud Atlas and Utopia Avenue \n \nOne year after the death of his beloved musician father\, thirteen-year-old Benny Oh begins to hear voices. The voices belong to the things in his house—a sneaker\, a broken Christmas ornament\, a piece of wilted lettuce. Although Benny doesn’t understand what these things are saying\, he can sense their emotional tone; some are pleasant\, a gentle hum or coo\, but others are snide\, angry and full of pain. When his mother\, Annabelle\, develops a hoarding problem\, the voices grow more clamorous. \nAt first\, Benny tries to ignore them\, but soon the voices follow him outside the house\, onto the street and at school\, driving him at last to seek refuge in the silence of a large public library\, where objects are well-behaved and know to speak in whispers. There\, Benny discovers a strange new world. He falls in love with a mesmerizing street artist with a smug pet ferret\, who uses the library as her performance space. He meets a homeless philosopher-poet\, who encourages him to ask important questions and find his own voice amongst the many. \nAnd he meets his very own Book—a talking thing—who narrates Benny’s life and teaches him to listen to the things that truly matter. \nWith its blend of sympathetic characters\, riveting plot\, and vibrant engagement with everything from jazz\, to climate change\, to our attachment to material possessions\, The Book of Form and Emptiness is classic Ruth Ozeki—bold\, wise\, poignant\, playful\, humane and heartbreaking. \n“Once again\, Ozeki has created a masterpiece. Her generous heart\, remarkable imagination\, and brilliant mind light up every page.” —Karen Joy Fowler \nRuth Ozeki is a novelist\, filmmaker\, and Zen Buddhist priest. She is the award-winning author of three novels\, My Year of Meats\, All Over Creation\, and A Tale for the Time Being\, which was a finalist for the 2013 Booker Prize.

She is affiliated with the Everyday Zen Foun­dation and teaches creative writing at Smith College\, where she is the Grace Jarcho Ross 1933 Professor of Humanities. \nKatie Kitamura‘s most recent novel\, A Separation\, was a finalist for the Premio von Rezzori and a New York Times Notable Book.
