How to Perform a Bookstore Tango

Submitted by bookworksnm on Thu, 03/04/2010 - 10:51am.

For those of you who missed Maria Finn - here are some photos of the tango demonstration portion of the evening - on our carpeted floor!

Karen Reck and Paul Akmajian demonstrate (right).

Paul speeds it up a little here with Leslie Jones dancing a milonga

Online Book Club

Bookworks is starting a (mostly) online book club! Our first book selection is Elif Batuman's The Possessed: Adventures with Russian Books & the People Who Read Them - an essay collection I think will give us plenty of potential things to talk about (as well as some fun external media... I wonder if Woody Allen's Love and Death will be relevant!)

Please email me at lkuechen@gmail.com - I'll be sorting out a few technical details soon, and I'd like to have the email addresses of those who wish to be involved, because I may have come up with a really fun way to conduct the discussions online, and I'll need to email all of you details.

The Staff Recommends:


Driftless (Paperback) By David Rhodes $16.00 Winner of the Milkweed National Fiction Prize, Driftless, came out in paperback in 2009. It's one of the best books I've read in a long time. I got it from a friend and it sat in a stack until Sunday afternoon. I found myself setting aside time so I could read it and finished it last night. Our store book group should read it. The author wrote 3 books in the 70's and was in a motorcycle accident and is paralyzed from the chest down. This is his first book in 30 years. It was worth the wait!
