Tracy Chevalier '84 will be reading and discussing her newest novel (release date of January 5, 2010) Remarkable Creatures, on Thursday, January 7, 2010 at 7pm at Joseph Beth Bookstore in Legacy Village. Ms. Chevalier is the bestselling author of Girl With a Pearl Earring, The Lady and the Unicorn, and The Virgin Blue, amongst other titles.
From the Joseph Beth website: "[T]he stunning new novel Remarkable Creatures [is] about how one woman's gift transcends class and social prejudice to lead to some of the most important discoveries of the nineteenth century. Above all, it is a a revealing portrait of the intricate and resilient nature of female friendship."
The discussion and signing is co-hosted by Joseph Beth Bookstore and the Cleveland Museum of Natural History. As a special addition, Dr. Linda Spurlock will give a free talk at 6:30pm about “Women’s Careers in Science”. The museum will also bring fossils for attendees to touch.
