Session 9

Tucked into a residential neighborhood in North Berkeley, the Berkeley Rose Garden is one of those beautiful public spaces you might stumble upon by accident. It’s a great place to browse the dozens of varieties of roses on display or take in the excellent views of the bay. In fact, it’s the first place that came to mind when I started thinking of interesting places to shoot Lively Words sessions.

In Session 9, we go there with Lauren Schiffman, whose wonderful ‘povella’ excerpt provides gritty, compelling contrast to the park’s gracious tranquility.

As we march into 2009, I’m thankful for the chance to continue highlighting writers whose work I admire. And I thank you for coming along for the journey.

Enjoy.
