Alexis Smith's Glaciers brings you into the memories of Isabel, the bookish protagonist who cherishes the history in things old and vintage. Tucked between the words of Smith's book are highlights into the life of a Portland bookkeeper who dreams about the glaciers of Alaska. Even while turning the pages, one can't help but visualize their own forgotten memories and trinkets, whether they were baseball cards shared with dad, or an old ring handed down generations of a maternal line.
Evan P. Schneider changes the mood with his book entitled A Simple Machine, Like the Lever. We can all relate in some way to Nicholas Allender, who's endeavoring to keep his head above water in all aspects of his life. Between trying to keep his job, bringing smiles to his girlfriend's face, and not getting lost in the ups and downs of life's trivialities, Schneider's novel offers a change of ordinary in the form of an extraordinary character.Check out these two amazing authors Sunday, May 20 at 1 p.m. at Auntie's Bookstore.
