GPAG: Lori Thicke, Dreamer’s Daughter Book Launch
Lori Thicke, cousin of the late Alan Thicke, will be interviewed by Michael Gurney and read from her national bestselling debut memoir, “Dreamer’s Daughter: Surviving My Childhood and Raising My Father.” In a mining town where hope is as tapped-out as the gold, a mother abandons her two children. Dreamer’s Daughter is a memoir of what happens next as Lori, 10, and Brad, 5, end up in the custody of their free-spirited father. Colourful and larger-than-life, Dacker is a dreamer who fails spectacularly at everything — except at being a loving parent.
GPAG: Book Launch and Conversation
Join former Gibsons resident and Edmonton author Theresa Shea to celebrate the launch of her new novel, Dog Days of Planet Earth. Shea is the bestselling author of The Unfinished Child, and the Alberta Book Award and Guernica Prize winning novel The Shade Tree. Her new book weaves together major environmental and political issues of the mid- to late-20th century that remain urgent today, and asks what we’re willing to risk for our personal convictions in a world where powerful and unjust forces often oppose them. Animal lovers, earth lovers, justice lovers, and story lovers alike won’t want to miss this event. Open to the public.
Books will be available to purchase.
