My dear friend Rona Altrows is launching her second collection of short stories, Key In Lock.
Once again, I’m having trouble inserting an image, so instead of posting her invitation with the beautiful book cover, I’ll have to stick with text.
Recliner Books, the Memorial Park Library, and Rona Altrows are pleased to announce the release of Key In Lock, a collection of short stories by Rona Altrows.
A passion for humanity drives Rona Altrows’s Key In Lock. The people in these entertaining yet poignant stories wrestle with self-doubt, ethical dilemmas, money problems, health issues. Yet somehow they survive and sometimes they even thrive. Key In Lock also marks the return of Irene, beloved manager-in-all-but-name of Marjorie’s Lingerie introduced in A Run On Hose. This time Irene takes on issues as diverse as dating later in life, the e ect of childlessness on a person’s psyche, stress incontinence, and the love rituals of banana slugs. Irene also brings us tales of her youth in the days of the polio epidemic and Vincent Price horror movies.
Please join us on Saturday, October 23, 2010 at 2:00pm at the Memorial Park Library (1221 2nd Street SW, Calgary) as Rona Altrows reads from Key In Lock.
