John Banville, hailed by The Economist as “Ireland’s
finest contemporary novelist,” won the 2005 Man Booker Prize for his novel, The
Sea. A prodigious author, Banville has written more than twenty books,
including mysteries under the pen name Benjamin Black. The Sunday Telegraph
says, “With his fastidious wit and exquisite style, John Banville is the heir
to Nabokov.” His other works include The Book of Evidence, which The
New York Times Book Review calls “a disturbing little novel that might have
been coughed up from hell,” Eclipse, Shroud, The Untouchable,
and many others; his Benjamin Black titles include Christine Falls
and The Silver Swan. Banville will read from his eagerly anticipated new
novel, The Infinities, a wholly unexpected lively, comical, and
irreverent multi-generational family saga.

Abraham Verghese, an Ethopian-born South Asian physician, is the
author of two highly acclaimed memoirs, My Own Country, a finalist for
the National Book Critics Circle Award, and The Tennis Partner, a New
York Times Notable Book, of which Kaye Gibbons says, “It supersedes any
memoir I’ve ever read...a wonderful examination of what it means to be alive.”
His newest work, Cutting for Stone, marks his transition from memoir to
the novel, in a sprawling family epic set mostly in Ethiopia. Verghese is “something of
a magician as a novelist,” writes USA Today, adding that “Cutting for
Stone is an underdog and a winner. Shades of Slumdog Millionaire.”
Simon Schama calls it “beautiful and deeply affecting.” Verghese is currently a
professor at the Stanford University School of Medicine.

Through a collaboration with Brazos Bookstore, Gulf Coast Magazine is
proud to present the next three readers from the University of Houston’s
nationally-acclaimed graduate program in creative writing.

All readings are free and open to the public and begin at 7 p.m.

Join us this Saturday afternoon for a signing with

Lakota
Dreams is a story about a young man, Nate Henderson, whose dreams evolve as he
experiences life in the Dakota Territory.  Clarion ForeWord Reviews called Lakota Dreams “well-researched,
it teems with details both of white settler life during the 1870s and the lives
of the Sioux during that time.”  They said, “the novel picks up steam once Nate
is among the Sioux and the alternate history adventure begins in earnest . . .
readers may enjoy an original take on this historical period....Greenwood writes about Native Americans without
exoticizing or infantilizing them.  The book’s modern sensitivity is noticeable
and welcome, but not intrusive.”  Native American authorities/professors
from the University of South Dakota and the University of Texas provided Greenwood with much of the factual information woven into the story. 

In a work of sweeping breadth and beauty, Houston photographer Geoff Winningham has created
a profusely illustrated, contemplative travel journal that showcases
his talent as both a photographer and a writer and reveals his
affection and respect for the two countries he calls home. In 2003, Winningham saw for the first time both the southern
coast of Veracruz, with its volcanoes, rain forests, and steep
mountains, and the Texas coast near High Island, where the land seems
to stretch endlessly, covered by a sea of salt grass. He decided that
these two visually striking areas could be the beginning and end points
of a photographic study that would also engage the two cultures in
which he had lived for twenty years, the U.S. and Mexico.

Now, seven years and more than a hundred trips later, Traveling the Shore of the Spanish Sea: The Gulf Coast of Texas and Mexico
is the result. In this beautifully illustrated and engagingly written
book, Winningham also considers the role that the Gulf of Mexico played
in the discovery and exploration of the New World.

Winningham's
journey begins east of High Island, in Port Arthur, where the images
suggest a cautionary tale relating to the oil industry and the land. It
ends twelve hundred miles down the coast at the end of an old, stone
road in tropical terrain of almost indescribable beauty, overlooking
the sea. In between, more than two hundred photographs include natural
landscapes (ranging from unspoiled to completely despoiled), roadside
architecture and signage, and images of people Winningham met. As he
attempts to come to terms with the disturbing changes he witnessed to
the coastal environment, the book also contains elements of a poignant,
personal lament for what is being lost.

Traveling the Shore of the Spanish Sea: The Gulf Coast of Texas and Mexico will delight and enchant readers with its deeply felt personal narrative and the power and beauty of its images.

Geoff Winningham is professor of visual arts at Rice University, where
he has taught photography since 1969. His work is included in major
anthologies of photographs and is in most major collections in the

Art, New York, the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, and the major art
museums of Texas.

The Rice Department of English and Fondren Library's Cherry Reading Series continues at your neighborhood bookstore with the fantastic Elizabeth McCracken. She is the author of The Giant's House, which was nominated for the National Book Award; Niagara Falls All Over Again, winner of the PEN/Winship Award; and Here's Your Hat, What's Your Hurry?, a collection of stories. Her most recent book is a memoir titled An Exact Replica of a Figment of My Imagination about the loss of her first child in the ninth month of pregnancy, called by McCracken "the happiest story in the world with the saddest ending."

"Reading it is a mysteriously enlarging experience. It could pair neatly with Joan Didion's The Year of Magical Thinking: it's hard to imagine two more rigorous, unsentimental guides to enduring the very bottom of the scale of human emotion." Lev Grossman

"'A child dies in this book: a baby,' Elizabeth McCracken tell us
early on, so that we we might not hope too much, as she has, for the
beautiful child who would grace her life. Alert to every nuance of
feeling, McCracken writes with such clarity and immediacy that we hope
anyway. 'It's a happy life,' she says, 'and someone is missing.' That
these statements can both be true is the mark of great emotional
maturity, and of a writer who rises to the human complexity of grief
with all her powers, and all her heart." Mark Doty

"In An Exact Replica of a Figment of My Imagination, Elizabeth
McCracken does not howl out her loss. She is devastatingly calm and in
this matches measure for measure her own fine writing. By the end of
this memoir you will have held a beautiful child in your hands and you
will have acknowledged him. This book is an extraordinary gift to us
all." Alice Sebold

Read the Washington Post review of The Surrendered.

See Michiko Kakutani's rave review in the New York Times.

Chang-rae
Lee's powerful new novel (released March 9) had its beginnings twenty years ago in questions
he had about his father's Korean War experiences, something his father
had never wanted to discuss.

But
under prompting, the elder man finally opened up, describing the
horrors he had seen and endured as a boy fleeing with his family
southward ahead of the advancing North Korean army. Lee could never
shake those images. Now they have inspired the opening pages of The Surrendered, a novel Publishers Weekly hails as "deeply felt, compulsively readable and imbued with moral gravity."

It is the fourth novel from 44-year-old Korean-born, American-raised Lee, whose first book, Native Speaker (1995), won the PEN/Hemingway Award for best first work of fiction.

Though it begins in the chaotic opening days of the Korean War, The Surrendered
expands outward over time and geography and becomes what Lee describes
as "not so much a war novel as a story concerned with the effects of
mass conflict on the human psyche and spirit, the private odysseys
those who've experienced conflict must endure."

The
story centers on the life of June Wan, who escapes the war and builds a
business in New York, outlives a husband, and raises a son. But a
mid-life quest for that now-missing son prompts a journey into the past
and opens up the secrets she has nursed for three decades. The journey
also involves a reunion with the man, Hector Brennan, who saved her
life long ago. Novelist Junot Diaz says The Surrendered "looks to be Lee's epic masterpiece."

Born
in Korea in 1965, Lee emigrated to the United States with his family
when he was three. Raised in Westchester, N.Y., he graduated from Yale
University and worked briefly as a Wall Street analyst before turning
to writing full time. Native Speaker, about a Korean-American industrial spy, was followed by A Gesture Life (1999) and Aloft (2004). Lee's books have been named to "best books of the year" lists by The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, Esquire, and other publications. In addition to the PEN/Hemingway, he has won the Asian-American Literary Award and the Barnes & Noble Discover Great New Writers Award. The New Yorker named him one of the twenty best writers under forty. He teaches creative writing at Princeton University and is widely considered the most important living Korean-American novelist.

His
reading will be followed by a reception and book-signing in nearby
Brochstein Pavilion. Brazos Bookstore will handle onsite book sales.
Admission to the reading is free to Asia Society members, $5 for
nonmembers. Click here to register.

Tracy Kidder, a master of the non-fiction narrative, won the National
Book Award and the Pulitzer Prize for his book, Soul of a New Machine.
Kidder combines award-winning reportorial skill with what one New York Times
Book Review critic describes as “the author’s genuine love, delight, and
celebration of the human condition.” He has written nine books of nonfiction,
including House, Among Schoolchildren, Old Friends, Home Town
and My Detachment, Kidder’s personal account of his time as a soldier in
Vietnam,
where he was awarded the Bronze Star. Of his highly acclaimed book, Mountains Beyond Mountains,
author Thom Jones writes, “Mountains is the sort of book that makes you
want to buy a hundred copies and pass them out like a street corner
evangelist.” Kidder’s newest book, Strength in What Remains, has been
described as a book which will “resurrect your faith in the human spirit.” It
follows the story of Deogratias, a refugee from the civil war and genocide of
1990s Burundi, who makes his
way to New York City.
“Deo’s story,” says Alex Kotlowitz, “is remarkable, stunning really. His
journey is the story of our times, one that keeps the rest of us from
forgetting.”

An exploration of the racial politics of American sports, from
the Jim Crow era to the present day, witnessed through the life of
legendary African-American basketball coach and NCAA title winner Nolan
Richardson

Born in El Paso's Segundo Barrio, or Second Ward,
pioneering basketball coach Nolan Richardson grew up in the only black
family in a Mexican neighborhood and attended desegregated Bowie High
School in 1955. Richardson went on to play at Texas Western College,
now the University of Texas at El Paso, as the first black star player
for legendary coach Don Haskins. Richardson eventually rose to national
prominence as a coach in his own right. He became the first black coach
at a predominately white school in the Old South to win the NCAA
Championship in 1994 at the University of Arkansas. With Richardson's
Razorbacks playing at a high-pressure, electrifying pace—a style he
called "Forty Minutes of Hell," which became a nationally known
trademark—Arkansas made three appearances in the Final Four, and
Richardson was named NABC Coach of the Year in 1994.

Richardson's gradual political awakening, and his subsequent refusal to
keep quiet about overt or subtle racial injustices, marked his rise.
Regardless of his staggering win totals, tensions in Arkansas
culminated in an infamous 2002 press conference in which he accused the
University of Arkansas of discriminating against him, bringing about an
abrupt end to his college coaching career. The only coach in history to
win a Junior College National Championship, the NIT, and the NCAA
tournament, Richardson went on to coach internationally and in the
WNBA.

Rus Bradburd, a former college basketball coach who
also worked with Don Haskins, highlights Richardson's trailblazing
career with empathy and intimacy, revealing a man whose hard-won
successes were matched by deeply felt losses. An intensive inside look
at elite collegiate athletics and a chronicle of the transition away
from the segregated era of American sport, Forty Minutes of Hell
is the first full-length biography of Nolan Richardson, setting his
complicated story against the backdrop of a decisive time in American
history.

"Nolan Richardson's extraordinary life and
success as the University of Arkansas' coach are an important chapter
in the history of our country's struggle for racial equality, with all
the excitement of the Final Four. What an incredible journey! I am
grateful that I got to see a lot of it first hand and to know such an
able and remarkable man."
- President Bill Clinton

"This
is a great story about America and its hidden histories. Nolan
Richardson understands the struggle because he did the heavy lifting.
Every black college coach with a good job today owes Nolan Richardson a
measure of respect for the fearless way he kicked down doors. Every
American should thank him for showing us it was possible.
- Charles Barkley

"I've
never read a sports book I would describe as operatic until now. Nolan
Richardson's story, both unique and universal, would challenge the most
seasoned biographer, but Bradburd's libretto is heartbreaking and
inspiring. This is the finest sports biography I've read in years,
hands down."
- Dave Zirin, author, A People's History of Sports in the Unites States

Establishes Richardson as one of college basketball’s most compelling figures, both because of and in spite of his race.
- Kirkus Reviews

Rus Bradburd teaches writing classes in New Mexico State
University’s MFA program. A Chicago native, he coached basketball at
UTEP and New Mexico State for fourteen seasons before resigning to
pursue a writing career in 2000.

Rus Bradburd coaching in Ireland, the subject of his memoir Paddy on the Hardwood.

At NMSU, he studied with Robert Boswell, Antonya Nelson, and Kevin McIlvoy. His fiction has appeared in The Southern Review, Colorado Review, Puerto del Sol, Freight Stories, and Aethlon.

Since retiring from college coaching, his essays have appeared in The Houston Chronicle, El Paso Times, Las Cruces Sun-News, Heartland Journal, SLAM Magazine, Bounce, and Los Angeles Times.

Rus went to Ireland in 2002 to coach Tralee's Frosties Tigers. Paddy on the Hardwood: A Journey in Irish Hoops was his first book, published in 2006.

Forty Minutes of Hell: The Extraordinary Life of Nolan Richardson was published by Amistad, an imprint of HarperCollins Publishers.

Asia Society's Wells Fargo South Asia Lecture Series presents Mack Professor of Management and Vice Dean for Global Initiatives at the Wharton School of Business Harbir Singh. Co-author of The India Way: How India's Top Business Leaders Are Revolutionizing Management, which will be released this March, Singh will discuss how management innovation in the future won't pass from West to East but will become a two-way street.

Do we have free will? What counts as justice in the Peruvian Amazon? Is
Catherine Zeta-Jones objectively hotter than Drew Barrymore? These are
just a few of the questions that philosopher Tamler Sommers attempts to
answer in far-spanning interviews with ten acclaimed researchers in the
burgeoning field of moral psychology contained in his new book, A Very Bad Wizard: Morality Behind the Curtain. Philip Zimbardo talks about his
famous “Stanford Prison Experiment” and how it relates to abuses of Abu
Ghraib. Harvard neuroscientist Josh Greene reports on the ways our
brains react to ethical dilemmas. Jonathan Haidt explains why we object
to incest and how that relates to disagreements between conservatives
and liberals. Renowned Primatologist Frans de Waal juxtaposes human
behavior with that of the bonobo (a species he terms the "hippie ape.")
And much more. A Very Bad Wizard is essential reading for anyone curious about the origins and inner workings of our moral lives.

"An intellectual feast, completely engrossing."
— Ian McEwan

“A thought-provoking and entertaining tour of one of the frontiers of human knowledge — the roots of our moral sense.”
— Steven Pinker, Harvard College Professor of Psychology, Harvard University, and author of How the Mind Works and The Stuff of Thought

“Tamler
Sommers has become something of a legend in the world of philosophy,
not only for his profound insights into human morality, but also for
the almost supernaturally funny and engaging way he presents
philosophical ideas.… These interviews give the reader a real sense for
some of the most important new research in the cognitive science of
morality, but they also do an amazing job of capturing some of the
verve and excitement of this emerging new field.”
— Joshua Knobe, Assistant Professor, Program in Cognitive Science and Department of Philosophy, Yale University

Tamler Sommers is Assistant Professor of Philosophy at the University
of Houston, and holds a joint appointment with the Honor’s College. He
teaches primarily in ethics, political philosophy, and the philosophy
of law, specializing in issues relating to free will and moral
responsibility. His current research project examines differences in
perspectives about moral responsibility across cultures and what these
differences mean for the philosophical debate. A book on this topic
entitled Relative Justice is under contract with Princeton
University Press. Recent publications include “The Two Faces of
Revenge: Moral Responsibility and the Culture of Honor” (Biology and Philosophy), “More Work for Hard Incompatibilism” (Philosophy and Phenomenological Research), and “The Objective Attitude” (Philosophical Quarterly). Sommers also contributes regularly to the Times Literary Supplement and conducts interviews for The Believer. A collection of his interviews, entitled A Very Bad Wizard: Morality Behind the Curtain, will has just been published by McSweeney’s Press.

Join the Central Library for a visit from novelist Shilpi Somaya Gowda, who will discuss and sign copies of her debut novel Secret Daughter.

In a tiny hut in rural India, Kavita gives birth to Asha. Unable to
afford the “luxury” of raising a daughter, her husband forces Kavita to
give the baby up – a decision that will haunt them both for the rest of
their lives. Halfway around the globe, Somer, an American doctor,
decides to adopt a child after making the wrenching discovery that she
will never have one of her own. When her husband Krishnan shows her a
photo of baby Asha sent to him from a Mumbai orphanage, she falls
instantly in love. As she waited for the adoption to be finalized, she
knew her life would change. But she was convinced that the love she
already felt would overcome all obstacles.

Shilpi Somaya Gowda was born and raised in Toronto to parents who
migrated there from Mumbai. She holds an MBA from Stanford University
and a BA from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. In 1991,
she spent a summer as a volunteer in an Indian orphanage. She currently
lives in Dallas with her husband and two daughters.

Visit the Rothko Chapel online for more information.

Join Brazos Bookstore and the Asia Society at the Houston Club for a luncheon with bestselling author Michael Lewis, author of The Blind Side, to discuss his just-released book, The Big Short: Inside the Doomsday Machine, a character-rich and darkly humorous account of how the U.S. economy was driven over the cliff. 

Who better than the author of the signature bestseller Liar’s Poker
to explain how the event we were told was impossible—the free fall of
the American economy—finally occurred; how the things that we wanted,
like ridiculously easy money and greatly expanded home ownership, were
vehicles for that crash; and how shareholder demand for profit forced
investment executives to eat the forbidden fruit of toxic derivatives.

Michael Lewis’s splendid cast of characters includes villains, a few
heroes, and a lot of people who look very, very foolish: high
government officials, including the watchdogs; heads of major
investment banks (some overlap here with previous category); perhaps
even the face in your mirror. In this trenchant, raucous, irresistible
narrative, Lewis writes of the goats and of the few who saw what the
emperor was wearing, and gives them, most memorably, what they deserve.
He proves yet again that he is the finest and funniest chronicler of
our times.
