¡Club de lectura en español!

Le recordamos que este sábado, 18 de julio, a las 6:00 pm, tendremos nuestra primera reunión presencial del Club de Lectura en español en el número 12 de Saunooke Road. Se trata de una dirección residencial en East Asheville, así que, por favor, envíeme un mensaje si tiene alguna duda o le cuesta encontrar el lugar.

Estamos deseando pasar un rato disfrutando de la colección de relatos de Mario Benedetti, *La muerte y otras sorpresas*. Si aún necesitas una copia y vives por la zona, envíame un mensaje. Tengo algunas copias de sobra. Si no, ¡nos vemos el sábado!

Ah, y ya lo he dicho antes, pero vale la pena repetirlo: se trata de una colección de relatos cortos. Si no llegas a leer todo el libro porque te has quedado sin tiempo, o si leer en español no es tu punto fuerte pero quieres practicar, ven de todos modos. Comparte lo que hayas leído o descubre por qué este libro te ha parecido increíble, aburrido o confuso. Personalmente, estoy deseando practicar y perfeccionar mi español. ❤️

Lately, I’ve been thinking about community and what it means to share stories in community. Cuentos y Café was born out of a desire to share stories, both fiction and nonfiction, and a large part of that has centered around books and the written word. Sure, the C&C pop-ups and markets, as well as the online store, cover that aspect, but one of my biggest joys comes from sharing stories in person. It allows for so much more nuance and a different sort of interaction. It’s why I love book clubs so much.

This past week, I joined Shunyu and a small group of amazing humans at her Wu Yong Culture Space community storytime, where she shared Chinese tea, and the conversation flowed so beautifully. This wasn’t a story time about me. It was a space for us to connect in a way I hadn’t expected. The tea flowed, curiosity took over, and I think we all left there feeling a little more seen.

As I continue to think about what it means to be in community as both Tamara and Cuentos y Cafe, I hope to be more intentional about nurturing spaces like this Friday’s community storytime. A space where people can share their similarities and differences respectfully. Where we can gain new perspectives and share old ones. But most of all, where we foster a little more kindness. A big thanks to @shunyu___huang for having me, and for the friends who dropped by. If you haven’t checked out the Wu Yong Culture Space, I highly encourage you to do so. What a beautiful and peaceful space.

¡Hola, mi gente!

Just a quick update about our Magical Realism Book Club. It seems it's been a bit tricky for folks to get their hands on a copy of He Mele a Hilo, since it's a bit of an older book, and your fearsome book club host (not naming any names, but it starts with Ta and ends in ra) forgot to send out the reminder email. We're moving next week's meeting to Sunday, August 2, so everyone has a chance to get a copy of the book and do the reading. Gahhh and Yayyyy!

I look forward to seeing you all to chat about this fun novel set in Hawai'i.

¡Hola, gente!

Solo una breve actualización sobre nuestro club de lectura de realismo mágico. Parece que a algunos miembros les ha costado un poco conseguir una copia de «He Mele a Hilo», ya que es un libro bastante viejo, y el temible encargado/a del club de lectura (sin dar nombres, pero empieza por «Ta» y termina en «ra») se olvidó de enviar el correo recordatorio. Vamos a cambiar la reunión de la semana que viene al domingo 2 de agosto, para que todos tengáis la oportunidad de conseguir un ejemplar del libro y leerlo. ¡Ayyy y yuujuuu!

Estoy deseando verles a todos para hablar sobre esta divertida novela, ambientada en Hawái.

We are excited to be a part of Reverb of Resistance, a powerful evening of live music, visual art, and community connection, taking place Thursday, June 25, at The Grey Eagle Music Hall. The event is produced by Southern Equality Studios, a core program of the Campaign for Southern Equality that supports queer artists and explores arts as a catalyst in achieving lived and legal LGBTQ equality across the South.

Reverb of Resistance brings together artists and audiences for an all-ages benefit event that centers the multidimensionality of Southern LGBTQ+ artists. The program will feature live performances and collaborative art in a space designed to foster connection, joy, and solidarity. Performers include Las Montañitas, Elizabeth McCorvey and Her Band, and Lyric.

Liz Williams, Director of Southern Equality Studios, said today:

“At a time when trans and queer people are facing unprecedented, escalating attacks at every level, art remains a powerful force for truth, healing, and resistance. Reverb of Resistance is about creating space for our community to gather, to be seen, and to channel both grief and hope into collective action.”

Event Details:

What: Reverb of Resistance – a night of live music, visual art, and community storytelling
When: Thursday, June 25 | Doors at 5:00 PM, show at 6:00 PM
Where: The Grey Eagle Music Hall
Who: LGBTQ+ artists and performers from across the South
Tickets: Pay-what-you-can (no one turned away for lack of funds)

I recently went to Puerto Rico, my parent’s homeland, for the first time in 24 years. My son’s first visit. I spent time with family and friends, which filled my heart in ways I hadn’t realized I needed. I finally saw the island through the eyes of an adult.

While my trip was amazing and full of new memories, I can’t ignore the fact that mine was a privileged experience on the island, as a tourist. I heard mention of the water crisis, but it didn’t fully click until I saw friends and family who were directly affected by the water shortage. I saw the sadness and frustration of not having a basic necessity accessible, especially when you think about the ways prioritizing development and outside influences have kept the island from improving the systems that would better serve its native residents.

I’m no stranger to the impact of a water shortage, having gone over a month without water post Helene, but there is one major difference. For us in NC, we knew that water was coming. This was not a regular occurrence. The same cannot be said on the island.

Puerto Rico’s history is long and complicated, and continues to be plagued by corruption, colonization, and a constant fight for freedom. I won’t claim to be an expert on the matter. Hell, I didn’t truly stop to think about what was really going on until I saw it with my own eyes in a brief trip, and what I saw was nothing compared to what the locals have to endure. I’m not even sure where to go from here.

I think about Cuentos y Café and why it was started, and I go back to the stories and the importance of sharing them. Sometimes sharing doesn’t look like it book, but an article, an interview, a PSA by the people experiencing things first hand. With everything happening in PR and in the US, just to start, how can I be more intentional about using my voice? Photo repost from @teampuertoricoo

We have a new date!!

Ok, let's try this again. Our May Historical Fiction Book Club meeting this past Friday had to be canceled at the last minute, but we're back in June, same time, same great location, for a much-anticipated discussion on Tochi Eze's This Kind of Trouble.

We'll see you all at Battlecat Beverly Hills on 885 Tunnel Road from 5-6 pm.

👏

¡¡Tenemos una nueva fecha!!

Bueno, vamos a intentarlo de nuevo. La reunión de nuestro club de lectura de ficción histórica de mayo, prevista para el pasado viernes, tuvo que cancelarse a última hora, pero volvemos en junio, a la misma hora y en el mismo lugar, para una plática muy esperada sobre la novela de Tochi Eze, This Kind of Trouble.

Rainy days are for catching up on reading. Catch us at Battlecat Beverly Hills this Friday from 5-6 pm for our Historical Fiction Book Club, where we’ll be chatting about This Kind of Trouble by Tochi Eze. Only 2/3 of the book left to go 🤣. Do you think I’ll make it?! I hope I make it!

I really enjoyed Buncombe County Libraries’ One Book, One Buncombe event today. Not only was the conversation with @dolenperkinsvaldez funny and insightful, but I also ran into some friends along the way.

Did you know that Ronnie Pepper was instrumental in shedding light on the Kingdom of Happy Land? He is both a staple in the Hendersonville community and a talented performer. I will forever remember his role in Dreamgirls at the community theater in Hendersonville.

I can’t forget @samantha_randolph, my fellow bookworm and book club alum. If it’s bookish, I know she’ll be there spreading book joy. 💕

Really enjoying our May Magical Realism Book Club pick, River Mumma by Zalika Reid-Benta. It’s got a powerful Jamaican River spirit, sassy 20 somethings, a nod to ancestry, and touches on why it’s important not to appropriate other people’s dang culture. 🌊💕

Excited to finally get a chance to read Xóchitl Gonzalez’s latest novel that dropped last month. I might be a little late to the party, but the signed copy makes up for it. I’ll keep you posted on how it goes! If you haven’t already, grab a copy of Last Night in Brooklyn. If you’re in the Asheville area, I have a few copies left. Happy Reading! 😉

Magical Realism Book Club was extra yummy today. Our friend Hau got a little inspired by the recipes in this sweet novel and brought in some tofu he made to share. It was just the right snack for our little chat. 💕📚

I need to take a moment to once again thank the kind folks at the The Yellow Mug Coffee Lounge in Weaverville for not only letting me set up shop in their space, but also for these heavenly French Toast. I think they’re called Mystery Machine, I can’t remember. What I do remember is the strawberry cream cheese filling and the way I devoured them in record time. That washed down with a yummy caramel latte had me floating straight into pop-up mode. Also, the owners are the best and the staff was so helpful and attentive! Another Indie Bookstore Day in the bag, and a new local gem discovered in my backyard. Whoot whoot! 🎉
