Corporal Jack Graven should be dead. Murdered by a vengeful angel at his own father's funeral, Jack is resurrected and returns to life carrying a terrible secret: he is the Archangel Gabriel reincarnated.
Jack's not the only one with secrets. His older brother, Lieutenant Colonel Tyler Graven "Demon of Kyoto", has just inherited his father's fortune and legacy as Lord of War, with no intention of stopping there: Tyler will someday rule the world.
Join us in welcoming Beth Cowan-Erskine, a writer from Minot and now living in England!
About Beth:
Dominique Snedeker, author of Motherhood: Crucible of Love, returns to Main Street Books to sign and discuss her newest book of poems. Cold: Untamed Beauty is a love letter to the powerful, beautiful, and often dangerous North Dakota winter. Aspiring poets are welcome to participate in the workshop part of this event, prompting writers to meditate on their own connection with the cold - be it fear, family, awe, annoyance, or anything in between.
This beautiful book contains photographs from every county in North Dakota, and would make the perfect gift for anyone who loved our state, or photography, or both, this Christmas. Get your copy signed and the gift is made all the more special!
Join us in welcoming poet Holly Peck to Main Street Books!
"After ten years of travel and teaching, From My Heart to Yours was born. Rather than just poetic reflection, this collection shares pieces of author Holly Carol's soul. Her words explore the complicated emotions of the heart, most notably, love.
Please join us on Thursday, October 6 from 5-7 p.m. for a conversation about the role of creativity in our lives. The discussion will be facilitated by Rosanne Olson, photographer, artist and writer from Seattle who grew up in Minot. She will be joined by Margaret Moore, psychotherapist from Deerfield, Ill, and Ted McMahon, physician and poet from Seattle. The evening will include a free-ranging discussion in which everyone is invited to participate with their ideas and stories about the many manifestations of creativity.
Join us for this special book talk & signing! The Pfeiffer Sisters grew up on a North Dakota farm in the 1950s, watched over by their parents and the windmill that tirelessly provided them with
the water vital to their survival.
Lose yourself in Janine and Jackie’s loving, sometimes spirited recollections, which are complimented by the observations of the ever- present windmill.
Join us in welcoming Taylor Brorby as he signs and discusses his memoir Boys and Oil: Growing Up Gay in a Fractured Land.
"Brorby has written not only a truly great memoir, but also a frighteningly relevant one that speaks to the many battles we still have left to fight." --Jung Yun, New York Times Book Review
From a young, gay environmentalist, a searing coming-of-age memoir set against the arid landscape of rural North Dakota, where homosexuality "seems akin to a ticking bomb."
