On Sunday, July 13th at 2:00 p.m., Pamela Carter Joern will discuss and sign "At the Corner of Past and Future: A Collection of Life Stories"

---

With keen observation and deep reflection, Pamela Carter Joern probes her life. No topic is too small or too sacred, from gutting chickens to Gaudí's cathedral. Through a range of experiences—growing up in rural Nebraska, raising children, surviving cancer, becoming a writer—she explores the tenuous link between memory and truth. Joern displays a gift for mining wisdom through surprising connections, juxtaposing her father's life to the discoveries of Isaac Newton or the writer's task to the ancient art of alchemy. She weds philosophical insight and spiritual imagination and laces this amalgam with candor and wit, resulting in a work that is engaging, intimate, and illuminating.

Pamela Carter Joern is the author of four works of fiction: "Toby's Last Resort", "In Reach", "The Plain Sense of Things", and "The Floor of the Sky", all published by the University of Nebraska Press. She has written six plays that have been produced in the Twin Cities of Minnesota and taught writing at the Loft Literary Center in Minneapolis for ten years.
