04.25: Kat Von D CANCELLED
2013-04-25 02:36:26| Powells Books Events Calendar
Renowned tattoo artist, author of New York Times bestsellers High Voltage Tattoos and The Tattoo Chronicles, and star of the reality TV show LA Ink, Kat Von D raises the bar with her most intimate work yet: Go Big or Go Home: Taking Risks in Life, Love, and Tattooing (Harper Design). Kat has always been a risk-taker in her day-to-day life, her creative work, and love. In Go Big or Go Home, she writes candidly about her greatest desires, fears, successes, and failures, and shares how she has dealt with them. In seven thematic essays, Kat addresses issues close to her heart — such as individuality, independence, and altruism — and draws upon her own experiences and those of her many clients. Filled with Kat's sketches, handwriting, drawings of tattoos, and process photos, as well as specially commissioned photographs of the finished large-scale tattoos by celebrity and fashion photographer Patrick Hoelck, Go Big or Go Home covers a wide range of her astounding work on regular citizens, as well as the many celebrities who seek out her artistry. We're sorry to report that this event has been cancelled.

Shawn Vestal's Godforsaken Idaho (New Harvest) is a stunning debut story collection that features tales of the afterlife, the rugged Northwest, and the early days of Mormonism. Vestal is an acclaimed McSweeney's and Tin House contributor, and his stories will satisfy fans of such short-fiction masters as Raymond Carver, Denis Johnson, and George Saunders, as well as those readers fascinated by the Mormon faith.
04.25: Tosh Berman
2013-03-15 02:35:53| Powells Books Events Calendar
In 2008, Tosh Berman, author and publisher of TamTam Books, got on a plane with a single motive: "Sparks Spectacular." It had been announced that the band Sparks would perform all 21 of their albums in a succession of 21 nights in London — a monumental experience for any Sparks fanatic. Part travel journal, part personal memoir, Berman takes us through the streets of London and Paris, observing both cities' history and culture through the eye of an obsessive Sparks fan's lens. Including reviews of all 21 albums and beyond, Sparks-Tastic: Twenty-One Nights with Sparks in London (Barnacle Book & Record) defines a place and time in music history that's too defining to be ignored.
