LYNN GINSBURG & MARY TAYLOR
Thursday, March 7, 7:30 p.m.

For many American women, long-time veterans of the battle with body image and weight loss, the self-deprivation of dieting has become a way of life. But we all know the truth: if diets worked, then we wouldn’t find ourselves resolving time after time to control our eating, to lose weight, this time for good. In What are You Hungry For? (St. Martin’s, $23.95), LYNN GINSBURG and MARY TAYLOR explore the connections among women, food, and spirituality, describing ways in which dieting veterans can move beyond the surface level of culturally-dictated looks and dieting, going deep within to discover the true source of satisfaction that can fill the void inside.

MICHAEL MOORE
Saturday, March 9, 7:00 p.m. at Flatirons Theater

The unstoppable MICHAEL MOORE first won acclaim with Roger & Me—the biggest-grossing documentary film ever; his Emmy-winning series, TV Nation and The Awful Truth, brought his corporate-skewering campaign straight into living rooms all across America. In 1997, he became a bestselling author with Downsize This!, reminding our nation that our livelihoods are still mortgaged out at the whim of CEOs and their shills. Now, recent events in America and the world have brought him back with a vengeance; something’s gone wrong with the country, and Moore nails the culprits in Stupid White Men (Regan, $24.95). With his characteristic blend of comic provocation and serious advocacy, Moore challenges everyone from the current administration to Arafat, the male gender, and the Democratic Party. Entertaining and astonishing in equal measure, Moore’s latest is possibly the most powerful in his series of acts of satirical subversion, sure to cause controversy on every side of the political landscape.

This event will be held at Flatirons Theater, 1089 13th Street. Tickets are available at Boulder Bookstore for $5.

Stupid White Men

CHRISTOPHER MOORE
Thursday, March 14, 7:30 p.m.

The absence of canonical works on the childhood and formative years of Christ has long troubled scholars. Between the manger and the mount, he may have traveled. He certainly studied. And possibly along the way, as CHRISTOPHER MOORE notes in his new novel Lamb (William Morrow, $24.95), Jesus might have picked up a little kung fu. Just in case.
