DESCRIPTION:The Poetry Night Reading Series is excited to feature Richard Robbins and Thomas Mitchell at 7 PM on Thursday\, June 15th\, 2023\, on the roof of the John Natsoulas Gallery\, 521 1st Street in Davis. \nRichard Robbins was raised in California and Montana\, taught in Minnesota for many years\, and recently returned west to Oregon.

Attendees who request to be added to the list after 7 PM will be invited to try again at a subsequent event. \nThe Facebook event page for the June 15th\, 2023 Poetry Night can be found here:  \nThe Poetry Night Reading Series\, taking place on first and third Thursdays of the month at 7 PM\, is generously supported by the people and poets of the Sacramento Valley\, by John Natsoulas\, and by Thea and the other members of the staff at the John Natsoulas Gallery.

SUMMARY:Author Event: K.X. Song
DESCRIPTION:We are thrilled to host debut author K.X. Song for the launch of her young adult novel\, An Echo in the City.  This event will take place on Wednesday\, June 21\, 2023 from 6-7pm. \nAbout the Author \nK. X. Song is a diaspora writer with roots in Hong Kong and Shanghai. K. X. currently resides in the San Francisco Bay Area. An Echo in the City is the author’s debut novel. K.X. invites you to learn more at kxsong.com. \nAbout the Book \nTwo star-crossed teenagers fall in love during the Hong Kong protests in this searing contemporary novel about coming-of-age in a time of change. \nSixteen-year-old Phoenix knows her parents have invested thousands of dollars to help her leave Hong Kong and get an elite Ivy League education. They think America means big status\, big dreams\, and big bank accounts. But Phoenix doesn’t want big; she just wants home. The trouble is\, she doesn’t know where that is…until the Hong Kong protest movement unfolds\, and she learns the city she’s come to love is in danger of disappearing. \nSeventeen-year-old Kai sees himself as an artist\, not a filial son\, and certainly not a cop. But when his mother dies\, he’s forced to leave Shanghai to reunite with his estranged father\, a respected police officer\, who’s already enrolled him in the Hong Kong police academy. Kai wants to hate his job\, but instead\, he finds himself craving his father’s approval. And when he accidentally swaps phones with Phoenix and discovers she’s part of a protest network\, he finds a way to earn it: by infiltrating the group and reporting their plans back to the police. \nAs Kai and Phoenix join the struggle for the future of Hong Kong\, a spark forms between them\, pulling them together even as their two worlds try to force them apart. But when their relationship is built on secrets and deception\, will they still love the person left behind when the lies fall away? \n  \n
