Bookshop Santa Cruz welcomes writer Cara Giaimo for a presentation about her new book, "Atlas Obscura: Wild Life: An Explorer's Guide to the World's Living Wonders," a dazzling, over-the-top collection of the world's most extraordinary wild species that takes you to all seven continents and beyond. It's more than a field guide, it's an adventure.
Giaimo will be in conversation with Emily Simpson of the Monterey Bay Aquarium.
“A mind-blowing guide to nature's most enchanting and unexpected characters, every page is full of wit and wonder.” –Ed Yong, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of An Immense World
This event, cosponsored by Friends of Santa Cruz State Parks, will take place at the London Nelson Community Center, 301 Center Street, Santa Cruz.
CARA GIAIMO lives in Somerville, MA, with her wife, Lilia, two cats, many plants, and uncountable neighborhood rats. A former staff writer at Atlas Obscura, Cara now covers our fellow species for the New York Times, Fabrik Zeitung, Bloomberg Businessweek, and elsewhere. Her first book, Detector Dogs (with Christina Couch), was published by MIT Kids Press in 2022. She plays guitar in Sidebody.
