Bookworks to host author Kristina Jacobsen on Nov. 17

AT COLLECTED WORKS

Collected Works hosts these two author events this week.

At 6 p.m. Monday, Nov. 18, Joan Tewkesbury will discuss and sign her novel “Julio Robalo Opens the Door to His Mouth.” It is described as a kind of fable for our times.

At 6 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 19, Santa Fe photographer David Scheinbaum will present his new book “ENSO (Zen circle).” Scheinbaum uses only the tools of a Zen calligrapher and darkroom chemistry — no camera. He exposes photographic paper, applying fixer or developer or sometimes both under a dim safelight, varying his technique with each image. He describes creating “ENSO” as a contemplative process.

Collected Works is located at 202 Galisteo St., Santa Fe.

AT WHEELS MUSEUM

Albuquerque author and landscape architect Baker Morrow will read from and sign copies of his recent book “The Horse on the Sidewalk: Stories” at 10 a.m. Saturday, Nov. 23. The coming-of-age stories are centered on a high school student and his friends growing up in the late 1950s in what was then Albuquerque’s Far Northeast Heights. Wheels Museum is located at 1100 Second St. SW.

AT BEASTLY BOOKS

At 1 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 23, author A.M. Ross will launch her new novel “Falling Silver: Rising Bloodlines 1” at Beastly Books, 418 Montezuma Ave., Santa Fe. The novel is about artist Karina Redfeather who is quietly making a name for herself in Minnesota when her life is upended.
