This Saturday, October 6th, 10:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m., is the annual Bookstock, a full day’s program of speakers, signings, workshops, and more at the Benjamin L. Hooks Central Library on Poplar. And by “more,” organizers mean food trucks in the library’s parking lot, cooking demonstrations by authors Marissa Baggett, Paul and Angela Knipple, B.J. Chester Tamayo, live music, and a special address at 12:45 p.m. by Congressman Steve Cohen on the importance of literacy. Keynote speaker at 1 p.m. is Kristen Iversen, author of Full Body Burden: Growing Up in the Nuclear Shadow of Rocky Flats. Events are free and open to the public.
