SUMMARY:(Online) Sober Curious with Ruby Warrington
DESCRIPTION:Join Evenings with an Author (online) to discuss \nSober Curious\nwith author Ruby Warrington \nClick here to RSVP\nIn author and editor Ruby Warrington’s Sober Curious\, she dares to ask a question that many adults fear: what would happen if we reconsidered our relationship to alcohol\, and gave it up voluntarily? How would our bodies\, minds\, sleeping habits\, and productivity levels change? What could a life without alcohol look like? \nIn response\, she formulates the path of the “sober curious”: not a sober lifestyle following an alcohol use disorder\, but a series of steps taken by someone considering cutting alcohol out of their life to explore how their life might change. Leading by example\, Warrington describes how her own relationship to alcohol changed as she gained distance from it\, and how this distance revealed dependencies and physical reactions to alcohol to which she had previously been blind. She encourages readers to recognize their own blindspots when it comes to drinking\, and to begin to reconsider why and how alcohol consumption has become the standard in adult life. The choice to go “sober curious” brings a series of lifestyle changes which readers may find challenging\, yet Warrington’s encouraging and nonjudgmental voice offers the perfect blend of practical advice and motivational mantras\, making a more empowered\, alcohol-conscious life accessible to all.  \nClick here to RSVP\nAbout the speaker: \nRuby Warrington is an author\, editor\, and book doula. She has authored four books\, including Sober Curious (2018)\, The Sober Curious Reset (2020)\, and The Numinous Astro Deck (2019). Warrington is the host of the podcast Sober Curious\, and founder of the self-publishing imprint Numinous Books.  \nRegistration required. Free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:(Hybrid) The Family Chao with Lan Samantha Chang
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] \nJoin Evenings with an Author (in person and online*) to discuss \nThe Family Chao\nwith author Lan Samantha Chang \nClick here to RSVP\nLan Samantha Chang’s latest novel\, The Family Chao\, gives new life to the ancient story of the son (allegedly) killing the father. Reminiscent of Dostoevsky’s Brothers Karamazov\, the work is catalyzed by the murder of a patriarch upon the homecoming of his three sons. Here\, patricide is exceptionally used to explore racist and anti-immigrant attitudes latent in American society\, showing how crisis pushes these sentiments to the surface. Set largely in and around the family Chinese restaurant\, this is a brilliant story of hunger and consumption: devouring traditional and Americanized dishes\, media\, and ideology\, characters are glutted on the drama of the murder\, the spectacle of an ensuing trial\, and the tantalizing mythology of the American dream. Chang will be in conversation with Alex Capdeville.  \nClick here to RSVP\nAbout the speaker: \nLan Samantha Chang is the author of four books\, including the novels Inheritance (2004) and All is Forgotten\, Nothing is Lost (2010). She is the Elizabeth M. Stanley Professor in the Arts at the University of Iowa and the Director of the Iowa Writers’ Workshop. Chang has received fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts\, the John Simon Guggenheim Foundation\, and the American Academy in Berlin. Her writing has appeared in The Atlantic Monthly\, Ploughshares\, and The Best American Short Stories. She was a 2015 recipient of the Library’s Visiting Fellowship\, sponsored by The de Groot Foundation. \nAlex Capdeville lives in Paris with his wife and five-year old daughter\, and works as a set constructor for French TV. He has published a translation of his short story “The Stranger Chain” in the French review Rue Saint Ambroise\, as well as an author interview with Ethel Rohan in the online magazine Scoundrel Time.  \nRegistration required.  \n*The discussion will be available both online and in person.

SUMMARY:(Hybrid) The Future of Reality with David Chalmers
DESCRIPTION:Join Evenings with an Author (in-person and online*) to discuss \nReality+\nwith philosopher David Chalmers  \nClick here to RSVP\nIs virtual reality separate from reality? Are our experiences in virtual reality real? If everything is a simulation\, does that mean that nothing is real? The answer to these questions\, proposes philosopher David Chalmers in his new book Reality+\, lies in expanding our definition of what is real. Using the approach of “technophilosophy\,” which employs new technology to answer questions in philosophy and vice versa\, Chalmers offers a thorough and captivating argument for the reality of virtual worlds.  \nTaking up problems in the history of philosophy ranging from Plato’s cave to Descartes’ evil demon\, Chalmers inserts virtual reality and the metaverse into a philosophical debate. His argument is that simulated worlds are not only real\, but that they are capable of providing experiences which exceed those possible in the “real world.” Moving with ease from the mind-body problem to The Matrix\, Chalmers presents (in his work) a refreshing and surprising fusion of cultural commentary\, technological insight\, and philosophical meditation.  \nClick here to RSVP\nAbout the speaker: \nDavid Chalmers is a philosopher and cognitive scientist specializing in philosophy of mind and philosophy of language. He is Professor of Philosophy at New York University and co-director of NYU’s Center for Mind\, Brain\, and Consciousness. Chalmers is the author of three books\, including The Conscious Mind (1996)\, as well as numerous articles. He was elected a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts & Sciences in 2013.  \nRegistration required. Free and open to the public. \n*The discussion will be available both online and in person. While the conversation will happen in person (Chalmers will appear in the Reading Room)\, the Library will stream the conversation on Zoom for a live viewing experience.

SUMMARY:(Online) Rob Nixon on Environmental Justice and Slow Violence
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]From flooded Kentucky streets to Portugal engulfed in flames\, images of the climate crisis are used to underscore its urgency and communicate the scale of its devastation. For Princeton scholar Rob Nixon\, however\, of equal importance are the parts of climate change that are largely invisible and unspectacular. In his seminal 2011 work Slow Violence and the Environmentalism of the Poor\, Nixon encourages us to look at gradual processes of environmental harm which lead to catastrophic events. When we consider the unseen alongside the seen\, new strategies for the fight against climate change emerge\, and environmental justice becomes a more attainable goal.  \nAbout the speaker: \nRob Nixon is the Princeton Department of English Currie C. and Thomas A. Barron Family Professor in the Humanities and the Environment. He is the author of four books and a frequent contributor to the New York Times. Slow Violence and the Environmentalism of the Poor was named a 2012 American Book Award winner and Choice outstanding book of 2011. \nImportant information: This event requires advance registration.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1661353661878{border-left-width: 8px !important;padding-left: 8px !important;border-left-color: #9e0143 !important;border-left-style: solid !important;}”] \nEvenings with an Author are free and open to the public (with a 10€ suggested donation)\nthanks to the generous support of Gregory Annenberg Weingarten of GRoW @ Annenberg.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Teen Night: Paper Cutting with Shalinee Laval (ages 12–18)
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Paper cut art is a folk art that plays with positive and negative spaces\, and involves carefully cutting out a design through a piece of paper with a sharp knife. The areas of the paper left are the light areas of the design and the cut out areas become the darker contrast which then can be layered on top of a contrasting background. It is popular in China and Indonesia\, as well as Switzerland where it is known as Schehrenschnitte. In Mexico artists use inexpensive tissue paper to create papel picado for both religious and secular purposes. \n  \nAbout Shalinee Laval: Shalinee Laval makes paper cut art inspired by children’s fairy-tales. Her work has ben exhibited at Le médiathèque de Chantilly. You can find out more about Shalinee and see examples of her work here.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1662460559815{border-left-width: 8px !important;padding-left: 8px !important;border-left-color: #9e0143 !important;border-left-style: solid !important;}”] \n\n\nImportant information: Advance registration is required to attend this event\, and each teen must have a signed permission slip on file at the Library in order to participate.
