LUNCH WITH THE AUTHORS
Thursday, November 14 at 12 PM
Featuring Authors Mimi Zieman and Rachel Beanland
Tap Dancing on Everest: A Young Doctor’s Unlikely Adventure is sparkling with suspense and vulnerability, a coming-of-age story about the risks we take to become our most authentic selves. Mimi Zieman blazes an unlikely journey from the daughter of Jewish immigrants raised in an Orthodox community in New York City, to the doctor and only woman on an Everest expedition as a 25-year-old medical student.
A MUST-READ book pick of 2024—Independent Book Reviews Winner; 2024 Pencraft Award for Literary Excellence
The House is on Fire A “wildly entertaining” (NPR), “gripping” (The Washington Post) work of historical fiction about an incendiary tragedy that shocked a young nation and tore apart a community in a single night. Based on the true story of the Richmond Theater Fire of 1811, The House Is on Fire offers proof that sometimes, in the midst of great tragedy, we are offered our most precious—and fleeting—chances at redemption.
