SUMMARY:Author Reading: Frank and the Elephants: A Romance of the Rockies
DESCRIPTION:Richard Rowberry will be doing a presentation (reading and a talk) of Frank and the Elephants: A Romance of the Rockies at the Kaslo Library and the Nelson Museum\, 6:30 pm Sunday Sept. 29 and 7:00 pm Wednesday Oct 2.\n\nIt’s a free event! Richard will be selling copies (autographed!) if you’d care to take one home so you can find out what happened in the end.\n\n\nFrank and the Elephants: A Romance of the Rockies was a finalist for the Sunshine Coast Writers and Editors Book Awards. \n” A vivid writer conveying a strong sense of place and time. I really did feel myself in 1920s Cranbrook.  And the story\, of course\, is fascinating. Beautifully captured\, and a charming love story.” Iona Whishaw – author of the Lane Winslow Mysteries \n“Using his considerable gifts as a storyteller\, Rowberry spins a tale with equal measures of humour and humanity. So engaging are the exploits of Frank—in love and in elephants—that a reader might not even notice the meticulous research that has served to place us so authentically in 1920s small-town B.C. ” Anne DeGrace – Award-winning Kootenay Author \n“This is a hilarious tongue in cheek tale of an absurd situation in small town BC. I laughed throughout and followed along through the geography of the region I know so well. A true Canadian classic.” Bob McDonald host of CBC’s Quirks and Quarks
