(GRatHVTC) Jul 13  Book Signing: David Stinson, Deadball: A Metaphysical Baseball Novel (Saturday, July 13 at 1pm) Local author David B. Stinson visits Greetings & Readings for a book signing on Saturday, July 13 from 1 to 3 p.m. Deadball: A Metaphysical Baseball Novel is the story of former minor-league baseball player Byron Bennett, who has a deep and spiritual connection to the game and its history. Byron sees things in a way others cannot and believes in things others would not. He thinks the old men working the menial jobs in the diners, dives and graveyards he frequents are not what they seem. They try to fit in, go unnoticed, but Byron suspects they are not your typical second-career working stiffs. Part pilgrimage and part road trip, Deadball visits vanished ballparks like Baltimore's Union Park, Pittsburgh's Forbes Field, Cleveland's League Park, Detroit's Tiger Stadium, and Brooklyn's Ebbets Field. As visions of baseball's golden era appear around him with greater frequency and intensity, Byron must question everything he believes about life, himself and the game he loves. Are the flickering images he sees real, or are they all in his head? His friends, his ex-wife and his former teammates don't believe what he tells them he sees. At times, neither does he. Deadball will appeal to baseball fans and history buffs, but it also will appeal to anyone who knows what it means to be driven by a passion that others can neither appreciate nor understand.

She had no idea that her summer job would become nine years of immersion in a hidden world. Reeling from the death of her beloved great aunt, she found comfort in the funeral home, and soon has the run of the place, from its sacred chapels to the terrifying embalming room. With AIDS and gang violence threatening to wipe out a generation of black men, Wylie was never short on business. As families came together to bury one of their own, Booker was privy to their most intimate moments of grief and despair. But along with the sadness, Booker encountered moments of dark humor: brawls between mistresses and widows, and car crashes at McDonald’s with dead bodies in tow. While she never got over her terror of the embalming room, Booker learned to expect the unexpected and to never, ever cry. This vibrant tour of a macabre world reveals an urban funeral culture where photo-screened memorial t-shirts often replace suits and ties and the dead are sent off with a joint or a fifth of cognac. Nine Years Under: Coming of Age in an Inner-City Funeral Home offers readers an unbelievable glimpse into an industry in the backdrop of all our lives.

They are genuine human interest stories that will keep you intrigued. These books shows a side of Baltimore rarely seen by most and gives a view of human nature as seen through the eyes of a perceptive cabbie. They demonstrate how the forces of positive thinking and attitude work in the industry. The bright and dark sides of Baltimore are seen through descriptive vignettes that allow the reader to relive the cabbie's experience. The first book was a great local success when it debuted in 1986, so it's with great anticipation that we find out what Thaddeus Logan has seen in the time since then. Both titles will be available during the book signing. (GRatHVTC)… (more) Past events |
