American Widow American Widow
by Torres, Alissa, Choi, Sungyoon
“An autobiographical graphic novel written by Alissa Torres, whose husband was killed in the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. Torres depicts her first year as a widow with refreshing candor. She takes you on a journey of confusing politics and grief, from the moment she discovered that her husband did not survive, to the anniversary of his death in 2002. Beautifully and sensitively illustrated, American Widow gives a human face and story to the countless families who lost a loved one on September 11.” Amanda. Regularly $22; our price $17.60.

Title of Event: JEAN KILBOURNE
When: Thursday, January 15, 2009 6:00 PM
Location: Academy of the Holy Names, 3319 Bayshore Blvd, Tampa, FL 33629
Description: The Ophelia Project and the Academy of Holy Names present JEAN KILBOURNE, co-author of SO SEXY, SO SOON: THE NEW SEXUALIZED CHILDHOOD AND WHAT PARENTS CAN DO TO PROTECT THEIR KIDS at the Academy's Brady Center. Inkwood will cater books at the event for sale and autographing. Kilbourne's book is an invaluable and practical guide for parents who are fed up, confused, and even scared by what their kids - or their kids' friends - do and say. Kilbourne is an internationally recognized expert in early childhood development and the impact of the media on children and teens, and understands that saying no to commercial culture - TV, movies, toys, Internet access, and video games - isn't a realistic or viable option for most families. Instead, she offers parents essential, age-appropriate strategies to counter the assault. RSVP online at http://www.opbi.org/opheliatampa/ or call 813-514-9555, ext. 111.
