SUMMARY:Online Author Talk: Not Funny\, Jena Friedman
DESCRIPTION:Growing up\, Jena Friedman didn’t care about being likable. And she never wanted to be a comedian\, either. A child of the 90s\, she wouldn’t discover her knack for the funny business until research for her college thesis led her to take an improv class in Chicago. \nThat anthropology paper\, written on race\, class\, and gender in the city’s comedy scene\, was\, in Jena’s own words\, “just as funny as it sounds.” But it did lay the groundwork for a career that has seen her write and produce for The Daily Show with Jon Stewart\, the Late Show with David Letterman\, and the Oscar nominated Borat Subsequent Moviefilm. \nFriedman’s debut collection\, Not Funny\, takes on the third rails of modern life in Jena’s bold and subversive style\, with essays that explore cancel culture\, sexism\, work\, celebrity worship\, and…dead baby jokes. \nIn a moment where women’s rights are being rolled back\, fascism is on the rise\, and so many of us could use a breather as we struggle to get by\, Jena applies her unique gifts to pull a laugh from things deemed too raw\, too precious\, and too scary to joke about. She shares her stories of taking on those who told her she was too brash\, too edgy\, and too “unlikable” to make it. She deftly dissects how we get coerced into silence on the issues that matter most\, until they’ve gone too far afield to be turned back around again. And she shares her struggles to make it (-ish) in a world that\, more often than not\, would rather tune out than listen to a woman confronting the indignities we’ve been told to bear. \nAbout the Author: Jena Friedman is a comedian\, filmmaker\, and creator of AMC’s Indefensible and Soft Focus with Jena Friedman on Adult Swim. She has worked on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart\, Late Show with David Letterman\, and her writing has appeared in The New Yorker\, ARTNET\, and The Guardian. She was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay\, and won a Writer’s Guild of America award for her work on Borat Subsequent Moviefilm. She splits her time between Los Angeles and New York. Find out more at JenaFriedman.com and follow her on Twitter @JenaFriedman.

SUMMARY:Online Author Talk - Fox Creek\, William Kent Krueger
DESCRIPTION:Register here: https://libraryc.org/lima/25422 \nYou are in for a riveting hour online with New York Times bestselling author William Kent Krueger! Join us as he discusses his newest book in the Cork O’Connor series Fox Creek and his other works! \nFox Creek follows Cork O”Connor in a race against time to save his wife\, a mysterious stranger\, and an Ojibwe healer from bloodthirsty mercenaries. The ancient Ojibwe healer Henry Meloux has had a vision of his death. As he walks the Northwoods in solitude\, he tries to prepare himself peacefully for the end of his long life. But peace is destined to elude him as hunters fill the woods seeking a woman named Dolores Morriseau\, a stranger who had come to the healer for shelter and the gift of his wisdom. Meloux guides this stranger and his great niece\, Cork O’Connor’s wife\, to safety deep into the Boundary Waters\, his home for more than a century. Meanwhile\, in Aurora\, Cork works feverishly to identify the hunters and the reason for their relentless pursuit\, but he has little to go on. He knows only too well that with each passing hour time is running out. But his fiercest enemy in this deadly game of cat and mouse may well be his own deep self-doubt about his ability to save those he loves. \nAbout the Author: Krueger writes a mystery series set in the north woods of Minnesota. His protagonist is Cork O’Connor\, the former sheriff of Tamarack County and a man of mixed heritage—part Irish and part Ojibwe. His work has received a number of awards\, including the Minnesota Book Award\, the Loft-McKnight Fiction Award\, the Anthony Award\, the Barry Award\, the Dilys Award\, and the Friends of American Writers Prize. \nOrdinary Grace\, his stand-alone novel published in 2013\, received the Edgar Award\, given by the Mystery Writers of America in recognition for the best novel published in that year. The companion novel\, This Tender Land\, was published in September 2019 and spent nearly six months on the New York Times bestseller list. His last nine novels were all New York Times bestsellers. He’s been married for nearly fifty years to a marvelous woman who is a retired attorney. He makes his home in St. Paul\, a city he dearly loves.

SUMMARY:Online Author Talk - Kate Beaton (Hark! A Vagrant & Ducks: Two Years in the Oil Sands)
DESCRIPTION:Register here: https://libraryc.org/lima/25170 \nJoin us for an enlightening hour online with highly-acclaimed Kate Beaton\, the New York Times bestselling author of Hark! A Vagrant! And Ducks: Two Years in the Oil Sands. \nBefore there was Kate Beaton\, New York Times bestselling cartoonist of Hark! A Vagrant! fame\, there was Katie Beaton of the Cape Breton Beatons\, specifically Mabou\, a tight-knit seaside community where the lobster is as abundant as beaches\, fiddles\, and Gaelic folk songs. Her first full-length graphic narrative follows Beaton after university as she heads out west to take advantage of Alberta’s oil rush\, part of the long tradition of East Coasters who seek gainful employment elsewhere when they can’t find it in the homeland they love so much. With the singular goal of paying off her student loans\, what the journey will actually cost Beaton will be far more than she anticipates. \nArriving in Fort McMurray\, Beaton finds work in the lucrative camps owned and operated by the world’s largest oil companies. Being one of the few women among thousands of men\, the culture shock is palpable. It does not hit home until she moves to a spartan\, isolated worksite for higher pay. She encounters the harsh reality of life in the oil sands where trauma is an everyday occurrence yet never discussed. Her wounds may never heal. \nBeaton’s natural cartooning prowess is on full display as she draws colossal machinery and mammoth vehicles set against a sublime Albertan backdrop of wildlife\, Northern Lights\, and Rocky Mountains. Ducks: Two Years in the Oil Sands is more than a memoir\, it’s also an untold story of Canada: a country that prides itself on its egalitarian ethos and natural beauty while simultaneously exploiting both the riches of its land and the humanity of its people. \nAbout the Author: Kate Beaton was born and raised in Cape Breton\, Nova Scotia\, Canada. After graduating from Mount Allison University with a double degree in History and Anthropology\, she moved to Alberta in search of work that would allow her to pay down her student loans. During the years she spent out West\, Beaton began creating webcomics under the name Hark! A Vagrant\, quickly drawing a substantial following around the world. The collections of her landmark strip Hark! A Vagrant and Step Aside\, Pops each spent several months on the New York Times graphic novel bestseller list\, as well as appearing on best of the year lists from Time\, The Washington Post\, Vulture\, NPR Books\, and winning the Eisner\, Ignatz\, Harvey\, and Doug Wright Awards. She has also published the picture books King Baby and The Princess and the Pony. Beaton lives in Cape Breton with her family.
