Mayor's Book Club Ending For the Year

Tomorrow evening, the 2008 Mayor's Book Club will have a finale celebration at City Hall. Ishmael Beah, the author of this year's selection A Long Way Gone: Memoirs of a Boy Soldier, will be in attendance for a Q&A session led by UT Dean of Undergraduate Studies Paul Woodruff.

The festivities will start off at 6pm with a reception for Beah, which will include live music by DJ August Martin. Bookpeople will have copies of the book on sale and the author will be signing them. The conversation/Q&A session with the author will start up at 7pm after an introduction by Mayor Wynn. The event is free and open to the public.
