“Red Sky, Black Death” bookstore event Wed. May 6, 7pm

On Wednesday, May 6, at 7pm, Nashville’s excellent independent bookstore Davis-Kidd is co-hosting a book signing with Nashville’s NPR affiliate, Nashville Public Radio.

It’s in conjunction with a weeklong fundraiser for WPLN (all sales benefit the station). I’m obviously a big fan of WPLN–not only for the high-quality reporting, but because I often produce radio features for the station.

I’ll be reading a few very short excerpts from Anna Alexandrovna’s memoir, adding a few illuminating facts for historical context. (How many Soviet citizens died during WWII? How many women flew in combat during the war?) And we’ll briefly explore the question of what makes a person a hero. (Are heroes superhuman?) Come see us! It’s gluten-free.

Thank you Davis-Kidd and WPLN for the opportunity!
