7-13-06 7pm Free ----/ Event Description /----------------------------------------------- Robert Sullivan's last book, Rats, was the most perversely intriguing, remarkable, and unexpectedly elegant book of the year. Now he's turned his attention to the human world, and the peculiar American tradition of the road trip. Hauling his family from Oregon to Brooklyn, Sullivan excavates the unlikely and unruly history of the urge to cross the continent, and some of the oddballs who have blazed the trail for us. Library Journal says: "His trapped-with-the- family jaunts are authentic and frenetic -just like every good road trip should be, and the teasing details he offers about such things as the origins of the Indy 500 and the coffee cup lid do exactly what a good travel book should do: inspire you to explore." ----/ Venue Info /------------------------------------------------------ Edinburgh Castle Pub 950 Geary Street San Francisco 415.885.4074 ----/ Additional Info /------------------------------------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] 415.387.2272 www.greenapplebooks.com ----/ The Squid List Admin /--------------------------------------------- The Squid List, a tentacle of Laughing Squid http://laughingsquid.org/squidlist/ subscribe, unsubscribe, change your email address or change your subscription options: http://lists.laughingsquid.org/mailman/listinfo/squidlist/ Frequently Asked Questions & Submission Guidelines Squid List FAQ: http://laughingsquid.org/squidlist/faq.html The Squid List Online Calendar: http://laughingsquid.org/squidlist/calendar/ The Squid List RSS Feed: http://feeds.feedburner.com/squidlist ----/ Laughing Squid /-------------------------------------------------- Laughing Squid http://laughingsquid.com art, culture and technology from San Francisco and beyond Laughing Squid Web Hosting http://laughingsquid.net friendly, dependable and secure web hosting services for artists, individuals, bloggers, non-profits and small organizations The Squid List is licensed under a Creative Commons License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/2.5/
