Cristina Garcia: COMMUNITY READING INITIATIVE (Co-sponsored by Young Auditorium) "A Handbook to Luck"

Monday, December 1- 7:00 PM

In A Handbook to Luck, Cristina Garcia tells the story of three teenagers from around the globe making their way in the world. The book follows them through the years, surviving war, disillusionment, and love, as their lives and paths intersect. Born in Havana, Cuba and raised in New York City, Garcia has become one of the most important Latin American writers of our time. Her first novel, Dreaming in Cuban, was nominated for a National Book Award. She also served as TIME magazine's bureau chief for Florida and the Caribbean and is the recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship, a Hodder Fellowship at Princeton, and the Whiting Writers Award.

All lectures will be in the Young Auditorium at 7 p.m. and are free and open to the public. Contact Susan Johnson (or 472-4766) for further information.
