Miami Book International: 29 years and counting! Many of you know the story of Book Fair’s beginning as Books by the Bay—and while much has changed, as I look toward our 30th Fair, I am reflecting on what has stayed the same, and the ways in which those things have been key to the Fair’s continued growth and success. The support of our college administration and staff has always been unwavering. President Dr. Eduardo J. Padrón, who is one of our founders, Wolfson Campus President Madeline Pumariega, and the employees from all eight campuses who work extra hours and volunteer their time. And it is mostly a volunteer effort that makes the Fair happen. From the gentlemen and ladies who erect our iconic, colorful, exhibitor booths, to those who help with art projects in Children’s Alley, to the ones who open the doors of Chapman and Madeline Pumariega, MDC Wolfson campus president; Delia Lopez, dIrector of a dozen other venues, so that our operations, Miami Book Fair International; Dr. Eduardo J. Padrón, president, Miami Dade community can have access to Nobel College; Alina Interián, executive director, MDC Cultural Affairs; Mitchell Kaplan, chair, MBFI Board of Directors; Rosa Naday Garmendia, 2012 Poster Artist prize winners and emerging comics
This is our 29th Fair, and we have much to celebrate — books on many topics and in a multiplicity of languages, children learning to read or going to a reading by a favorite author (Lemony Snicket!), chefs and their delicious concoctions, Paraguayan culture and the beginning of the countdown toward our “pearl” anniversary — 30 years of great books!
artists, celebrity memoirists, GLBTQ activists, and political commentators — all of them are volunteers from throughout the College. Last year, 1700 folks volunteered at the Fair. This year the number will be similar, and I wish I had the room to print their names, all of them. But though I don’t, I want to at least say THANK YOU here and now. And I encourage all of you to thank them too, when you see them at the Fair. And you will see many of them, because there is so much to do this year! Discover Paraguay and enjoy its literature and arts, bring your kids to Children’s Alley for fun literacy and learning activities, or check out who is in The Kitchen — the Fair’s new program highlighting cookbooks, and featuring chefs dishing up deliciousness in the Wine Theatre at MDC’s Culinary Institute. There’s lots more to do! And the guide in your hands has all the details. See you at the Fair!

The Sweat Broadsheet Collaboration
2012 Miami Book Fair International Poster by Rosa Naday Garmendia
Exhibit runs Nov. 2 – Dec. 21, 2012 Centre Gallery (Building 1, 3rd Floor)
On a sweltering evening in July 2009, a group of visual artists and writers met at Sweat Records in Miami to share their work and talk about ways they might work together. The group effort resulted in The Sweat Broadsheet Collaboration, a vibrant display of nearly 50 broadsheets created in a wide range of print media, all with the theme of sweat. Join the participating artists and writers for Lit Takes a Schvitz, Saturday, November 17 at 3:30 p.m. in the Centre Gallery (Building 1, 3rd Floor), as they present some very cool readings on a very hot topic.

Award-winning fashion designer Isabel Toledo and her husband, artist Ruben Toledo, present a retrospective exhibition of their unique three-decade creative collaboration hosted in the very building in which they both arrived as political refugees from Cuba in the 1960’s. The exhibition showcases more than 30 years of archival Isabel Toledo designs (including the iconic lemon grass lace ensemble worn by First Lady Michelle Obama to her husband’s inauguration) on mannequins created by Ruben Toledo, and a selection of his legendary watercolor scrolls, illustrations, and sculptures. The Toledos will discuss Isabel’s recently published memoir, Roots of Style: Weaving Together Life, Love, and Fashion, on November 11 at 7 p.m. in the Freedom Tower. For more information on their book presentation, see page 4.

An Evening With
Tom Wolfe
Chapman (Bldg. 3, 2nd Floor), 6 p.m. | $10
Few writers are more revered, iconic, and instantly recognizable than Tom Wolfe. He is the author of the bestselling nonfiction classics The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test and The Right Stuff. Wolfe’s novels, The Bonfire of the Vanities, A Man in Full, and I Am Charlotte Simmons, have sold over 3.6 million copies. When Tom Wolfe publishes a new novel, it’s more than literary news; it’s a cultural event—especially when it is set in the cultural mash-up that is Miami. Wolfe’s latest is Back to Blood (Little, Brown, $30.00), a thrill-ride through the Magic City, featuring Wolfe’s on-the-scene reporting and a cast of characters worthy of a Tom Wolfe novel. Join the literary giant as he brings his white suit and his big, panoramic chronicle of the new America right here, to where it began, and where it belongs.
Screening of the documentary
Tom Wolfe Gets Back to Blood Auditorium (Bldg. 1, 2nd Floor), 8 p.m. | Free admission
Long before Isabel Toledo became a household name by designing the lemon grass ensemble First Lady Michelle Obama wore to her husband’s Inauguration, she had already been declared a couturier by Karl Lagerfeld, becoming with her husband, celebrated artist Ruben Toledo, a cult figure among knowing international fashionistas. The Toledos, who arrived in Miami with their families as political refugees in the sixties, learned to navigate the bewildering New York fashion and art worlds, while keeping their souls firmly planted in the Cuba of their birth. In Roots of Style: Weaving Together Life, Love, and Fashion (Celebra, $25.95) Isabel and Ruben partner to present an illustrated journey of a girl fascinated by design, craftsmanship, and sewing. Join the remarkable couple when they discuss their unique collaboration, which is also the theme of an evocative retrospective exhibition, Toledo/Toledo: Full Circle, at the MDC Museum of Art + Design, located at MDC’s historic Freedom Tower. The Toledos will be joined in conversation with award-winning biographer Judith Thurman, who is a frequent contributor to The New Yorker on fashion and books.
Following the presentation and book signing, be sure to stay for a screening of this behind-the-scenes documentary (71 minutes). For the first time in his 50-year career, Wolfe allowed his trademark up-close-and-personal research methods to be filmed. Produced and directed by Miami Herald reporter Oscar Corral, who assisted Wolfe during research for Back to Blood, the film captures rare, candid moments as Wolfe explores Miami: He is soaked during the Columbus Day Regatta, checks out white suits at thrift shops, visits Santeria shops, and rubs elbows with Miami’s elite.

Up until now, not much has been known about Lemony Snicket, the haunted and harried narrator of the immensely popular A Series of Unfortunate Events. The truth may be revealed when Snicket creator, Daniel Handler, presents the first of a four-part series, Who Could That Be at This Hour? (All the Wrong Questions) (Little, Brown Books for Young Readers, $15.99), which happens to be Snicket’s first “authorized” autobiography. Snicket describes the story as “four volumes that shouldn’t be read.” Handler may have a different opinion.
Dean Nicholas Lemann will interview Columbia Journalism Professor Mirta Ojito about her journey from Cuba - which she left at age 16 in the 1980 Mariel boatlift - to The New York Times; a shared Pulitzer Prize; teaching and book writing. Ojito’s first book, Finding Mañana: A Memoir of a Cuban Exodus, was widely praised. She is now working on Hunting Season: A Story of Home, Immigration and Murder, which will be released next year. Lemann is dean and Henry R. Luce professor at the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism. His books include Redemption: The Last Battle of the Civil War; The Big Test: The Secret History of the American Meritocracy; and The Promised Land: The Great Black Migration and How It Changed America, which won several book prizes.
Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz’s struggle to complete his first book could have been called “The five long, tortuous years of a young DominicanAmerican.” Diaz’s tenacity led to Drown, which won the PEN/O. Henry Prize. His first novel, The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao, was a literary sensation. The book spent more than 100 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list and won a host of major awards, including the Pulitzer Prize. At the heart of Diaz’s new short story collection, This is How You Lose Her (Riverhead, $26.95), is the irrepressible Yunior, a young hardhead whose longing for love is equaled only by his recklessness — and by the extraordinary women he loves and loses. “Fast-paced, unflinching, complexly funny, street-talking tough, perfectly made, and deeply sensitive,” says Booklist in its starred review. Enjoy an evening with one of the freshest and most candid voices in literature today.
Chris Hayes
Chapman (Bldg.3 2nd Floor) 8 p.m. | $10
Feeling “mad as hell and not going to take it anymore?” You’re not alone. As Christopher Hayes, editor-at-large of The Nation and host of Up w/ Chris Hayes on MSNBC, describes in Twilight of the Elites: America After Meritocracy (Crown, $26.00), Americans have watched in bafflement and rage as one institution after another – from Wall Street to Congress, the Catholic Church to corporate America, even Major League Baseball – imploded under the weight of corruption and incompetence. Americans have historically low levels of trust in their institutions; the social contract between ordinary citizens and elites lies in tatters. Join Hayes as he explains how our quest for equality created an entrenched elite class intent on maintaining power, and what we can do to restore a sense of balance to a nation suffering from a bad case of vertigo.

An Evening With
Sandra Cisneros
Chapman (Bldg. 3, 2nd Floor) 8 p.m. | $10
Despite her success as an author, Sandra Cisneros has continually returned to her community, showing the powerful connection between art, politics, everyday life—and death. When Cisneros’ mother died, she was left unmoored and grief stricken, but also aware of life in a more complete and complex way. “I wish somebody had told me,” she writes, “that death allows you the chance to experience the world soulfully...” So, it was with an open heart that Cisneros partnered with renowned artist Ester Hernandez to produce the illustrated fable Have You Seen Marie? (Knopf, $21.00), in which a woman, shattered by the death of her mother, goes on a transformative search for her friend’s missing cat. Cisneros, whose landmark first novel, The House on Mango Street, began her remarkable literary career, will share her story of hope and love in the wake of loss.

An Evening With
Dr. Brian Weiss & Amy Weiss Chapman (Bldg. 3, 2nd Floor), 6:30 p.m. | $10
As a traditional psychotherapist —not to mention a graduate of Columbia University and Yale School of Medicine — Dr. Brian Weiss was skeptical when one of his patients began recalling past-life traumas. Yet these memories allowed her to recover from her recurring nightmares and anxiety attacks in a way he’d never experienced before. His skepticism eroded further when the patient began to channel messages from “the space between lives” and reveal truths about his dead son that she never could have known. Dr. Weiss has become America’s leading authority in past-life regression therapy. In Miracles Happen (HarperOne, $25.99) Dr. Weiss, and his daughter, Amy Weiss, share remarkable real-life stories to reveal how past-life regression holds the keys to our spiritual purpose. Join the Weisses for an inspiring evening of spiritual awareness and healing.
An Evening With
Jeffrey Toobin
Chapman (Bldg. 3, 2nd Floor), 8 p.m. | $10
Jeffrey Toobin’s The Oath: The Obama White House and the Supreme Court (Doubleday, $28.95) is the story of two men — young, brilliant, charismatic — and determined to change the course of the nation. But from the moment John Roberts, the chief justice of the United States, blundered through the Oath of Office at Barack Obama’s inauguration, the relationship between the Supreme Court and the White House has been confrontational. Perhaps no one is better positioned to chronicle this dramatic tale than Jeffrey Toobin, staff writer at The New Yorker and senior legal analyst at CNN. Toobin’s previous book, The Nine, laid bare the inner workings and conflicts of the Court. Now, as the nation prepares to vote for president, the future of the Supreme Court will also be on the ballot. Join Jeffrey Toobin as he takes us behind the scenes in a high-stakes battle that will shape the future of America for years to come.
November 11-18, 2012
Thursday, November 15 An Evening With Robert A. Caro Chapman (Bldg. 3, 2nd Floor), 6:30 p.m. | $10
Robert A. Caro’s first biography, The Power Broker, was chosen by the Modern Library as one of the hundred greatest nonfiction books of the 20th century. The Passage of Power (Knopf, $35.00), book four of Robert A. Caro’s monumental fivepart The Years of Lyndon Johnson, displays all the energy and insight that led the Times of London to acclaim it as “one of the truly great political biographies of the modern age.” The Passage of Power follows Lyndon Johnson through the most frustrating and the most triumphant periods of his career—1958 to1964. It is a time that would see Johnson trade the extraordinary power he had created for himself as Senate Majority Leader for the powerlessness of a vice presidency in an administration that disdained and distrusted him. It would also be the time in which the presidency would be thrust upon him in the moment it took an assassin’s bullet to reach its mark. Come hear one of America’s great biographers tell of one of America’s most fascinating and enigmatic public figures.
An Evening With
Adam Gopnik
Chapman (Bldg. 3, 2nd Floor), 8 p.m. | $10
Adam Gopnik has spent much of his career thinking and writing about the complexity of modern life. Now, the award-winning essayist for The New Yorker who has won both the National Magazine Award and the George Polk Award, turns his attention to food. The results are delicious. The Table Comes First: Family, France, and the Meaning of Food (Knopf, $25.95) weaves together the history, philosophy, and culture of eating as he points out that our manic compulsion with food has obscured a timeless truth: what goes on around the table is always more important than what’s on it. Spend a flavor-filled evening with Adam Gopnik as he dishes up what The Atlantic calls “. . . history, nutrition, philosophy, anthropology, and sociology all rolled up into one delectable streusel of insight and illumination.”

Happy Hour with the Bookleggers
& Literary Death Match
Freedom Tower (600 Biscayne Boulevard), 7:30 p.m. | Free admission
Six-year-old Manuel Diaz and his mother first arrived at Miami’s airport in 1961 with little more than a dime for a phone call to their relatives living in the Little Havana neighborhood. Forty years after his flight from Castro’s Cuba, attorney Manny Diaz became mayor of the City of Miami. When Diaz took office in 2001, the city was paralyzed by a notoriously corrupt police department, unresponsive government, a dying business district, and heated ethnic and racial divisions. Miami Transformed: Rebuilding America One Neighborhood, One City at a Time (University of Pennsylvania Press, $29.95) chronicles Diaz’s life and his two terms as mayor, years which led to Miami’s transformation into a vibrant, progressive, and economically resurgent world-class metropolis.

An Evening With

Emma Donoghue
Chapman (Bldg. 3, 2nd Floor), 6:30 p.m. | $10
“Time and again,” writes author Ann Patchett, “Emma Donoghue writes books that are unlike anything I have ever seen before.” Consider her international bestseller, Room, in which a mother and child’s universe consists of an 11x11 foot space that is both their home and their prison. In her new collection of stories, Astray (Little Brown and Company, $25.99), Donoghue presents 14 stories featuring emigrants, runaways, drifters, lovers, attorneys and slaves, all of whom have one thing in common: they’ve gone astray. Donoghue navigates literary genre as easily as a trip across town; she has written literary history, biography, stage and radio plays – even fairy tales. Spend an evening with a writer who, according to The Observer, “. . . seems to be able to work on any register, any tone, any atmosphere, and make it her own.”
Alan Ryan
An Evening With in conversation with Robert Weil Chapman (Bldg. 3, 2nd Floor), 8 p.m. | $10
The scope of Alan Ryan’s two-volume historical work, On Politics: A History of Political Thought: From Herodotus to the Present (Liveright, $75.00), is as impressive as the subject matter. Three decades in the making, On Politics is one of the most ambitious and comprehensive histories of political philosophy in nearly a century. Ryan, the former warden of New College at Oxford who teaches politics at Princeton, has produced both a history and an examination of human thought and behavior spanning three thousand years, from the ancient Greeks to the present age. Robert Weil, editor-in-chief of On Politics’ publisher, W.W. Norton’s Liveright & Company, will join one of the most influential political philosophers of our time in a discussion of our past that will certainly provide insights into our present and our future.

discover Paraguay
Location: Building 8, 1st Floor (N.E. Second Avenue, between 3rd and 4th Streets)
November 11-18, 2012
Official Opening:
Thursday, Nov. 15 at 6 p.m.
Known as the “Heart of the Americas,” Paraguay is thought to mean “river that flows like the oceans,” in Guaraní, the language spoken by its indigenous people, and the country’s official language, alongside Spanish. Paraguay’s capital city, Asunción, was founded in 1537 by Conquistadores who used it as their seat of power while sending envoys to conquer other parts of the Americas. Paraguay is bordered by Argentina to the south and southwest, Brazil to the east and northeast, and Bolivia to the northwest. Emancipation from Spanish rule was achieved peacefully in 1811—the only country in the Americas to gain independence without bloodshed. As indicated by the Guaraní translation of its name, its three major rivers, the Paraguay, the Pilcomayo and the Paraná, are very important to national identity. And because of the extraordinary biodiversity in the areas that surround them, Paraguay is poised to become a prime destination for eco-tourism. For the moment, Paraguay’s industry is mainly agricultural—it is one of the largest soy producers in the world—but its economy has been growing significantly for the past 10 years, and other industries, including pharmaceutical manufacturing are expanding.
Hours: Thursday, Nov. 15, 6 – 7:30 p.m.; Friday, Nov. 16 to Sunday, Nov. 18, 10 a.m. – 6 p.m.

Because of its status as official language, Guaraní plays a significant part in the literary culture of the country. More than 90 percent of the population speaks Guaraní, and books are published in that language as often as they are in Spanish. Among the many respected Paraguayan authors writing in Spanish, are Josefina Pla and Augusto Roa Bastos, winner of Cervantes Prize for literature in 1989. León Cadogan, Bartomeu Meliá and Carlos Martínez Gamba are among the principal scholars and writers working and publishing in Guaraní. Paraguayan authors at Miami Book Fair this year include Domingo Aguilera, Deisy Amarilla, Emilia Alfaro de Franco, Maribel Barreto, Walter Biedermann, Alfredo Boccia, Ramiro Domínguez, Rolando Duarte Mussi, Lourdes Espínola, Benjamín Fernández Bogado, Renée Ferrer, Alcibiades González, Ronald Haladyna, Gustavo Laterza, Betsy Partyka, Juan Ramírez Biedermann, Fernando Pistilli, Jacobo Rauskin, Ramón Silva, Carlos Villagra Marsal and Father José Zanardini. Please see schedule on pages 34-35 for days and times of presentations by these authors.

In Memoriam:
Kathi Kamen Goldmark In May of this year, the publishing world lost an author, columnist, publishing consultant, radio and music producer, and songwriter. The Book Fair lost a good friend.
Kathi Kamen Goldmark appeared at the Fair on many
occasions and under many auspices, most recently in the company of her husband, Sam Barry, with whom she co-authored a writer’s guide to getting published. We’ll remember her best, though, as the founder and member of the all-author rock band The Rock Bottom Remainders, who were regulars at the Fair. Those Remainders’ performances—spirited, raucous, and fun—were unforgettable. So was Kathi.

descubriendo a Paraguay
Pabellón Paraguay: Edificio 8, 1er piso (N.E. Segunda Avenida, entre las calles 3ra y 4ta) La República de Paraguay es conocida como el “Corazón de América”. Su nombre en guaraní -una de las dos lenguas nacionales- significa “agua como el mar”. Es uno de los países más pequeños de América del Sur. Tiene como capital a la ciudad de Asunción, la que también es llamada “Madre de Ciudades”, ya que ha sido la ruta utilizada por los conquistadores para llegar a otros destinos. La independencia paraguaya fue declarada el 15 de mayo de 1811 al derrocarse las autoridades españolas locales. Fue la única victoria sin derramamiento de sangre en la historia de la emancipación americana. Los ríos y el agua son un elemento muy importante en la geografía e incluso en la cultura paraguaya. Por su diversidad y extraordinaria riqueza en reservas naturales, el país entero es calificado como lugar paradisíaco para el “turismo verde”. Paraguay cuenta con aproximadamente 6.340.000

habitantes. El rasgo cultural más importante de la nación es el idioma guaraní, hablado por el 90% de la población. En su condición de país bilingüe, Paraguay ofrece literatura escrita tanto en castellano como en guaraní. Esta última recibió un gran aliento y vive un notable crecimiento, luego de que el idioma fuera reconocido como una de las dos lenguas oficiales en la Constitución de 1992. Dentro de la literatura paraguaya en castellano destacan Josefina Plá y Augusto Roa Bastos, ganador del Premio Cervantes de Literatura en 1989. León Cadogan, Bartomeu Meliá y Carlos Martínez Gamba son algunos exponentes de la recopilación, estudio y producción de las letras en guaraní. Esta edición de la Feria Internacional del Libro de Miami rinde homenaje a la República de Paraguay, ofreciendo una variada muestra de su riqueza artística y cultural en distintas disciplinas.
