SUMMARY:Book Signing with Devilfish author Jenny Higgins!
DESCRIPTION:Join author Jenny Higgins at Coles in the Avalon Mall on Saturday\, December 9 from 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM to see her brand-new book\, Devilfish\, When Giant Squid Ruled the Northern Sea. Jenny will be signing copies of her wonderful new book and available to chat about all things giant squid! \nAbout the Book:The world did not truly believe in giant squid until the 1870s\, when record numbers of the mysterious creatures appeared in the waters and beaches around the island of Newfoundland. Photographs that appeared in international newspapers and physical specimens sent to ivy league laboratories accomplished what eye-witness accounts had been attempting for centuries: to prove beyond doubt that giant squid are real. \nThrilling tales and images of “devilfish” spread around the globe and shaped the animal’s public image as a delightfully terrifying enigma suspended at the boundary of fable and fact. As a newly acknowledged member of the animal kingdom\, the giant squid was an object for scientific study. At the same time\, though\, the public imagination playfully cloaked the mollusc in mystery; a real-life sea monster who had acquired many of the attributes of the Kraken and sea serpent. \nDevilfish contains more than 130 images and 10 pull-out facsimile documents. They are meant in equal parts to inform and delight—to explain the remarkable history of the giant squid while building a sense of wonderment and fun. Also included are dozens of bite-sized sidebars. Consider this a pop-up book for adults\, grounded in research and reaching for the wondrous! \nAbout Jenny:Jenny Higgins is a writer and researcher living in Flatrock\, Newfoundland and Labrador. Her work has been published in extensively and featured on CBC Radio and TV. In 2014\, she released her first book\, Perished: The 1914 Newfoundland Sealing Disaster. It won the Democracy 250 Atlantic Book Award for Historical Writing. Her second book\, Newfoundland in the First World War\, was published in 2016. \nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/746218987316525/

SUMMARY:Book Signing with Black Harbour authors Heather Barrett and Xaiver Campbell!
DESCRIPTION:Meet authors Heather Barrett and Xaiver Campbell on Sunday\, December 10 from 12:30-2:30 PM at Coles in the Avalon Mall and pick up a signed copy of their groundbreaking new book\, Black Harbour: Slavery and the Forgotten Histories of Black People in Newfoundland and Labrador! \nAbout the Book:It has been largely assumed that Black people are only recently settlers in Newfoundland and Labrador. In fact\, the sordid history of Black slavery within the British colony—and the role of Newfoundland merchant families in promoting the trade in human beings—has been denied\, obscured and forgotten. \nWith contributions from historians\, folklorists and other experts\, Xaiver Campbell and Heather Barrett discover a Black population was present in early Newfoundland and Labrador\, and that some of this history is rooted in the horrors of the transatlantic slave trade.Part personal commentary\, part documentary\, Black Harbour is an illuminating\, important\, and sometimes uncomfortable exploration of Newfoundland and Labrador’s colonial history—and what it means to those who live here today. \nAbout the Authors:Xaiver Campbell is a Jamaican-born writer who has been living in Newfoundland and Labrador for over a decade. These islands are quite different\, but Xaiver feels that living in Jamaica\, prepared him for life on the Rock. Minus the snow\, sleet and lack of sun – the people are equally warm and friendly. When not writing\, doing childcare\, baking\, playing or watching basketball\, Xaiver loves the outdoors and can be found swimming in the ponds all across the Newfoundland in the summer\, camping and hiking the East Coast Trail. \nHis fiction has been published in The Malahat Review\, Riddle Fence\, and several anthologies. His second play\, “One Name” is currently being workshopped by Halifax Theatre for Young People. Xaiver’s non-fiction work concerns the lives of enslaved and freed Black people in early Newfoundland settlements. \nHeather Barrett was born and raised in St. John’s\, Newfoundland and Labrador\, where she still lives with her family. She holds a Bachelor of Music from Memorial University of Newfoundland and a Master of Arts in Journalism from Western University in London\, Ontario. \nHeather is a journalist and storyteller\, and an international award winning radio documentary producer. She is also a long-time producer and host with the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation\, based in St. John’s. When she’s not telling stories\, Heather is an avid knitter and an avid runner\, but not at the same time. \nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/652498180377316/
