About this Event

Join us at Barnes & Noble to celebrate the release of "What Is Love?: A Story Collection", edited by Rumi Tsuchihashi for Story Republic Press.

"What is Love?" is an uplifting anthology about love in surprising places. Each tender real-life tale captures the beauty and ache of connecting with another living being. And they unfold anywhere, from a war-ravaged country to the Eastern seashore, a car, a kitchen, a conference room, and a hospital restroom.

This will be a fun-filled afternoon with readings, signings, and behind-the-scenes stories from contributing authors Anne Roche, April Bell, Dave Lewis, and Enrika Greathouse.
