FRAGILE CARGO | A Busboys and Poets Books Presentation

July 2, 2023 @ 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm

Free

Join us at Busboys and Poets Takoma for a Voices of Takoma Authors event to learn the amazing true story of Chinese museum curators’ race to save precious art in the years leading up to World War II.

Adam Brookes is joining us on the Busboys stage to discuss his book FRAGILE CARGO and his research to uncover the amazing story. Copies of FRAGILE CARGO will be available for purchase during and after the event, and Brookes will be signing following the program.

Voices of Takoma Authors is an ongoing series of programs sponsored by Historic Takoma featuring presentations by local authors about their works, their approach to writing, and their inspirations, drawing on authors in the Takoma Authors collection. Voices of Takoma Authors provides an opportunity for the community to learn about their author neighbors and engage in discussions with them. While many of these discussions occur at Historic Takoma, Busboys and Poets Books Takoma is hosting some as well. For more, see Historic Takoma’s page: https://historictakoma.org/voices-of-takoma-authors/.
