Author , Valerie Kreutzer will be here to talk about her book, A Girl Named Maria. It chronicles an adopted daughter's struggle with identity and her yearning for a birth family that may have included a twin brother. She was found abandoned in the lavatory of a cafeteria in Bogota, Colombia. The police who picked her up named her Maria Consuelo. From a stack of would-be parents, Colombia's welfare agency chose Valerie Kreutzer's application, and the toddler quickly bonded with her new mom in Washington, DC. At school Maria struggled with severe learning disabilities despite a superior I.Q., but also blossomed into an award-winning young artist. Her impulsive behavior led to fits and false starts during adolescence, until she found happiness at twenty-one with David and his extended family. Their love and lives ended in the curve of a rural road in Florida. Maria's legacy lives on in this poignant personal story of one mother's unconditional love for her adopted daughter. This is an intimate, first-hand story by an author, Valerie Kreutzer, whose childhood memories are of her refugee family, at the end of the Second World War, fleeing in terror and on foot their bomb-shattered home in eastern Germany, barely ahead of advancing Russian troops, and with not much more than the clothing on their backs.
Sara Williams, author of One Big Itch, will be here as well this afternoon. One Big Itch is set in Honolulu, the playful
tropical city that's also haunted, as Detective
John 'Oluhana Maalaea Spyer well knows. Too
bad Spyer is a hapa haole (ha-pa how-lee),
a half white, and so pays only half attention
when Madam Pele herself warns him off the
Randolph Haverhill case.
No decent Hawaiian ever says no to an old
friend, which makes Spyer the quintessential
"soft boiled" detective. Despite Madame Pele's
warnings, Spyer investigates the death of his
childhood pal Randy Haverhill, opening his
own psychic wounds and putting the love of his
mainland girlfriend Maya to the test.
Spyer is soon privy to a frightening tale of
obsessive love. Trouble is, Randy became too
popular with the ladies for his own good. It appears
that one of Randy's crazed lovers shot
Randy on his doorstep.
So why do the police persist in the notion
that Randy was murdered by his own son?
Curtis White is the author of the novels "Memories of My Father Watching TV" and "Requiem." A widely acclaimed essayist, his work appears regularly in "Context" and "Harper's." He is an English professor at Illinois State University and a board director at the award-winning Dalkey Archive Press. How can we keep faith in the idea of the United States, whose economy and government seem so thoroughly possessed by what White calls the Barbaric Heart? With his trademark wit, White argues that true resolution of our climate change crisis is likely to come from an unexpected quarter: the arts, religion, and the realm of the moral imagination more generally.
