Celebrate the written word, music and good food this Friday as Still Water Books and Art invites you to hear Lily Hoy Price read from her book, I am Full Moon - Stories of a Ninth Daughter starting at 7 p.m., at Uptown Willie’s.
She will delight you with her stories of growing up in a thriving immigrant family of 12 in Quesnel, British Columbia in the early 1900’s.
Described as a memoir like no other, it naturally illumines Chinese culture, the immigrant experience, and her own thoughts and feelings.
As well, Corey Spetafore, a provincial award-winning musician, will be playing classical guitar.
You are invited to hear up-and-coming authors from Campbell River read from their new works, and you are invited to bring your own writing and read a short selection.
There will be books on sale from 4 p.m. and throughout the evening, a supper special of Fish and Chips at $9.88 between 6 and 7, with the evening program starting a 7 p.m.
Cost for the evening is $5 at the door. Contact Trevor or Ruth McMonagle at 923-1374 or info@stillwaterbooksandart.ca for further information.
