April 2014 Poetry at Florey's!

Florey's Books invites you to our ongoing poetry event.

***Saturday, April 26th, 7:30-9:30pm***

From Sherri Rose-Walker:

I gleefully announce the second reading of the month at Florey's, in celebration of National Poetry Month, which will be a poetry bonanza! This time, we will have a sneak poet, Priscilla Wathington; the host of the longest running open mic in San Francisco (Sacred Grounds Cafe), Dan Brady; everyone's favorite Celtic harper and poet, Patrice Haan; and me. For obvious reasons, it's going to be a bit longer program than usual, but I hope it will also be an evening of a resonant, many-hued diversity of voice. Please consider bringing a snack or beverage to share, if you can, planning to raise your own voice at open mic, or just come to listen, and help us celebrate language and the spoken word.

"Beyond Folly" Book Event with Author Emil DeAndreis, April 26th at Florey's!

Florey's Books welcomes San Francisco author Emil DeAndreis as he discusses his new short story collection "Beyond Folly".

***Saturday, April 26th, 2-4pm***

About the book and author:

Welcome to the wonderful world of public education, as seen through the eyes of seasoned substitute teacher, Horton Hagardy. It's a time you might recall with great fondness if you were a student--a day to escape the oppressive existence of your everyday tormentors. If you're a substitute, however, these dark, funny, and often poignant stories, take you to a very real place.

In Emil DeAndreis's new book, Beyond Folly, we are on the front lines of the education system, in the trenches, so to speak, of what it feels like to face the everyday challenges of being a teacher on call. These thoughtful and insightful linked-together tales give the reader a behind-the-scenes peek into the life and mind of a substitute teacher, an isolated, underpaid, and underappreciated professional.

Emil DeAndreis is a twenty-seven-year-old substitute teacher and high school baseball coach in San Francisco.
