“I Loved You So Much

I loved you

So much

That when

You left

It took

A lot

To keep me

Alive.”

ABSOLUTE TRUST in the GOODNESS of the EARTH     

The new poems by ALICE WALKER

From Alice Walker’s poetry to memoir of Frances Mayes are all works: that are considered as literally works around the Bay.

In UNDER THE TUSCAN SUN, France Mayes in a poetic language describes her decision leaving San Francisco and finding a different world in Tuscan, Italy. “I’ve learned here that simplicity is liberating. Simca’s philosophy applies totally to this kitchen, where we no longer measure, but just cook. As all cooks know, ingredients of the moment are the best guides. Much of what we do is too simple to be called a recipe-it’s just the way to do it.”

Books around the Bay seems to be a simple theme for the summer reading game at the library .The theme is wide open to all different titles that were created here or the writers lived here part or all of her career , or the story starts ,ends, or take place in San Francisco. Two above titles are sample of the list. Both are non fiction …however if you like to read fiction, just search the catalog for San Francisco (calif.) fiction! Or stop by the information desk so we can share the other Bay Area authors that wrote fiction about other places in the world. The example for that would Isabel Allende, and Khaled Hosseini. Just join the game!
