admin — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 01:04:23 +0000

Aimee Bender reads from her book The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake at Prairie Lights Bookstore in the UNESCO City of Literature, Iowa City, Iowa.

When Rose Edelstein’s mother makes her a lemon chocolate cake for her ninth birthday, she is excited to try it; after all, it’s one of her favorite desserts. But when she bites into it, she is filled with sensations she never expected – sadness, despair, depression. She quickly realizes that, somehow, she is experiencing her mother’s emotions through her baking.

To her horror, Rose finds out that this particular talent isn’t limited to her mother’s cooking – anything she eats, she can taste the feelings of the people who made it. Through this unasked-for curse – or is it a gift? – Rose begins to understand more about the secrets each member of her family holds.

Live From Prairie Lights – The Big Bang

admin — Wed, 04 Aug 2010 23:50:57 +0000

Max Allan Collins reads from his book, “The Big Bang” from Prairie Lights Book Store in Iowa City Iowa.
In midtown Manhattan, Mike Hammer, recovering from a near-fatal mix-up with the Mob, runs into drug dealers assaulting a young hospital messenger. He saves the kid, but the muggers are not so lucky. Hammer considers the rescue a one-off, but someone has different ideas, as indicated by a street-corner knife attack. With himself for a client, Hammer – and his beautiful, deadly partner Velda – take on the narcotics racket in New York just as the streets have dried up and rumors run rampant of a massive heroin shipment due any day. In a New York of flashy discotheques, swanky bachelor pads, and the occasional dark alley, Hammer deals with doctors and drug addicts, hippie chicks and hit men, meeting changing times with his timeless brand of violent vengeance. Originally begun and outlined by Spillane in the mid-sixties, and expertly completed by his longtime collaborator Max Allan Collins, The Big Bang is vintage Mike Hammer on acid . . . literally.
