Holy Cow, friends! We just learned that writer & stellar human Karen Russell will be our special guest at this year's Street Books celebration/fundraiser, Thursday, September 19th! As always, our library patrons will attend our event free of charge, so if you'd like to sponsor a patron by purchasing an extra ticket, we thank you. Can't wait to see you there!

Link to tickets is here.

Here’s a thoughtful piece on Karen’s arrival to Portland a few years ago, & her distress at the number of people living outdoors in her neighborhood.

All the best to you!
