My Interests

books books books books books books books books books books books books booksBelow, listen to Dr. Pius Kamau read his essay at Tattered Cover from the book THIS I BELIEVE, featuring Dan Gediman, the executive producer of NPR's series by the same name.Many renowned contributors including Isabel Allende, Colin Powell, Gloria Steinem, William F. Buckley, Jr., Penn Jillette, Bill Gates, and John Updike make this book a stirring and provocative trip inside the minds and hearts of a diverse group of people whose beliefs, and the incredibly varied ways in which they choose to express them, reveal the American spirit at its best.Before coming to the U.S. in 1971, Dr. Pius Kamau studied medicine in Spain, England and his native Kenya. A thoracic and general surgeon, Kamau also writes a column for the Denver Post. He is currently organizing a medical group to work in Sudan.And here author Michael Shermer discusses his newest book The Mind of the Market: Compassionate Apes, Competitive Humans, and Other Tales from Evolutionary Economics.

I'd like to meet:

anyone who believes in the free flow of words and ideas, readers, writers, librarians, thinkers, teachers, publishers, book reviewers, booksellers, editors, artists & illustrators of all sorts, literary award winners, First Amendment activists, literacy advocates, poets, and you!And here's another person we'd like to meet. Author Paul Coelho An Evening with Paulo Coelho - Part One of Eleven

Music:

We love these guys: The Books, a performance art/music group

Movies:

84 Charing Cross Road, You've Got Mail, Crossing Delancey, Nottinghill, Neverending Story, any Woody Allen film featuring scenes in bookstores (and there are many), Harry Potter, Pride and Prejudice (the definitive one starring Colin Firth is the best and most accurate) and all other worthy adaptations of great works of literature.

Television:

Seinfeld episode: George and Jerry are shopping in Rizzoli's bookstore. George takes a book into the restroom to read while he's on the can and when he comes out he is told he has to buy it.

Books:

We're looking forward to another visit from author Ridley Pearson in July at our Highlands Ranch store. Ridley always attracts a big crowd, both young and old. His new book, an adult thriller, is entitled Killer View, but he is always careful that his readings and presentations are appropriate for his younger fans too, so bring the whole family.

Heroes:

Readers, independent booksellers, librarians, teachers, defenders of the First Amendment (especially ABFFE), book artists (be one), authors of every stripe, and we especially admire literacy activists around the world, making reading possible everywhere.
